What search engine is currently showing the most useful results? What other tricks do we have aside of adding "reddit" or whatever internet community to the results?

Dunno why you're getting down voted. It's literally a search engine that can read all the bullshit faster than you, so that you don't have to.

    If it isn’t open / free / private there is a % of the community that will not even try it.

    Just like on Reddit lots of negative energy in some subs.

    Hardly saying bing is amazing only that lately I have been drawn to trying it more since the chat based search that allows follow ups in natural language.

    Google bards equivalent is only available in the US and just this last week the UK so I can’t try it out.

    However over all I agree that more and more google search results have more adds and the good results pushed further and further down.

    I don't like the idea of getting answers from a search engine. That gives too much power to the company that runs the search engine. Id prefer to get a variety of links from independent sources.

    Have it compile a list of sources it's already sourced from, and keep searching for any new sources it can add. Have it list its expectations for what an expert should know about a particular subject, then have it learn about each of those points, and finally present as if it is an expert there to assist you.

    I downvoted because I have literally no idea what that guy is talking about.

    Bing has never been a good search engine. The results are always so terrible, plus you have to wade through all the Microsoft click-baity crap they put everywhere.

    I do like Bing for porn tho...

    Have you tried using the Chat feature (GPT-4) to do searching? I just tried it, and it surprisingly works really well for some inquiries.

    Like, use their chat AI, but as a natural language search engine. It’s integrated to Bing’s index so it can peruse it itself, so you don’t have to wade through all the Microsoft click-baits crap they put everywhere.
