Its wrong though. Its wrong so fucking often. There's no way to fix that. I stopped using ddg because of this. Pandering to right wing idiots does not necessarily mean being smart, that's thatcherite Nazi coddling lies.

    Ignoring the schizo half of your question, what would be an acceptable error rate for you?

    The acceptable inaccurate result rate is 0%. I think that’s unachievable by LLM tech.

    No search will ever give you the correct answer 100% of the time so I dont know why you'd draw such a dumb line in the sand.

    I mean unless you dont use search engines, don't use libraries, don't talk to humans.

    That's relative to the confidence with which its presented. Ten results on a page? I dunno. Only one of them needs to fit, and I can refine my search or check page two.. Or used to be able to, before they disabled those features.

    A statement at the top of the page? Pretty fucking low. Variable depending on topic, some as low as 0%.

    Get fucked sloppy. You're ruining the world and replacing critical infrastructure for the sake of dystopian bullshit that might collapse at any moment. You're going to have been cheer leading it along. I hope you end up homeless and hungry-a lot of other people will, but you'll fucking deserve it.

    How is a summary at the top of the page different from the first result? If you are fine with the first result being incorrect I dont see why you wouldnt also accept the summary to be sometimes wrong. There are still 10 results for you to pick from and infinite pages to scroll through.

    If it depends on the confidence do you need them to put a disclaimer? If I'm looking for something important I'm going to actual documentation and skipping the summary even when its correct. But if I'm just searching for something low stakes and the summary answers my question I am happy to not dig any further and I consider it to be an improvement on the search experience.

    These days its pretty accurate. I rarely come across a summary thats incorrect. Mostly I see incorrect summaries on searches where i already know I'm going to get a lot of wrong answers and have to sift through sites and old posts.

    Okay you can't be discussed with. Am I even talking to a human being? Are you asking grok for arguments? Arguing with sloppera is pointless. Everything it's saying is disingenuous missing the point or shows fabulous ignorance.

    You can't discuss it because you have no coherent reasoning behind why you arrived at your position. You are a reactionary who knows very little and parrots what you hear.

    If you dont want to use AI fine but you're wasting your time trying to discuss it when you have nothing about it to discuss. This is a technology community not an anti AI schzio ranting community.

    Make the argument as to why its not suitable.
