Comment on Researchers confirm what we already knew: Google results really are getting worse
Got_Bent@lemmy.world 10 months agoWhoa. I did a search that would inevitably bring nothing but sponsored bullshit on Google - “best tires”
My results were cartalk, consumer reports, cnet, and the consumer insider.
Nary a national chain trying to sell me something in sight.

Aren’t all of those sites just more adverts masquerading as information?

That’s the biggest problem, can’t even get straight data and ads separately. Now the articles are the ads, and SEO/adspace has made search results even less useful.

Comments are the ads now too.

Yeah especially with LLM models, now you can automate your shills.
