I fucking hate this AI shit but I'll admit I end up using Gemini (knowing its wrong sometimes) but it's like how I'd use Google but just more of a complex ask instead of simple search query's, I couldn't imagine using it beyond that other than a follow-up or two.

It's just a chatbot that has access to info, who goes onto their cable companies website and befriends the chatbot?

    I have found Google search to be getting progressively worse where as I can type out a question to Gemini that will return better results than Google search. It's annoying that Google search has gotten so bad and duckduckgo will return you something interesting but not relavent. So Gemini is my Google search nowadays.

    I've used gpt a coup times when I was searching the web and forums for well over an hour and found nothing relevant enough to work. Theissue got solved in 5-10 minutes.

    They enshittified the search so now using the chatbot is more useful. The search just returns slop and even fake slop forums.

    Its more that SEO is so well known at this point you can whip up whatever AI generated garabge you want to be ranked high on search engines in seconds. For now the AIs are just better at "wading" through the trash since they somewhat curate the data its training on. Once all they can train it on is slop you better hope you still have some encyclopedias and text books laying around

    Pretty much. Can't find useful info without having to put in ALOT of extra work that I wouldn't of a decade ago.

    Fuck though I love being able to ask it for part numbers and info. Much less hassle to ask it then use the shitty corpo parts catalogues search features especially when there's weird naming schemes and a lack of description, clicking through 50 parts trying to find the right one sucks.
