We also get things wrong all the time. Would you double check info you got from a friend of coworker? Perhaps you should.
Comment on SGE, ChatGPT and the likes are the stupidest thing to come from AI

I’ve had this argument with friends a lot recently.
Them: it’s so cool that I can just ask chatgpt to summarise something and I can get a concise answer rather than googling a lot for the same thing.
Me: But it gets things wrong all the time.
Them: Oh I know so I Google it anyway.
Doesn’t make sense to me.

People like AI because searches are full of SEO spam listicles. Eventually they will make LLMs as ad-riddled as everything else.

My specific point here was about how this friend doesn’t trust the results AND still goes to Google/others to verify, so he’s effectively doubled his workload for every search.

Then why not use an ad-blocker? It’s not wise to think you’re getting the right information when you can’t verify the sources. Like I said, at least for me, the trust me bro aspect doesn’t cut it.

Ad blockers won’t cut out SEO garbage.

And the AI will? It will use all websites to give you the info. It doesn’t think, it spins.
