What the fuck are we supposed to do when the services we use are monopolies which actively seeks to destroy its competition as well as enshittify itself to a point its unusable :|

Time to start self hosting. 

Techbro feudalists are all in on AI. They promised it would replace the human workforce and got initial investments and repeated support from money that should have been smarter then that, but the allure of firing all their workers proved too strong.

Now, they’re sitting on a trillion dollar house of cards. They’ll continue to fail upward. The correction will be delayed as they all move money between each other to cover bad investments.

At least Dutch tulips provided actual value. They could be planted and grow to be something real. LLM “AI” was always a scam.

I tried looking for an instruction PDF for some stage lights the other day. No amount of "google-fu" could find the right thing. Links labeled as one model showed stuff for other models when clicked, and the god awful summary that it shoves in your face was just full of contradictions of itself. Google is warm trash water at this point.

I HAVE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!

Goddamn fuckers just won’t stop!!!

Absolute pricks. "Don't do evil" they said.

AI has biases. News are titled to be biased too. This is grounds for fake news.

Sloplines.

Breaking Hallucinations!

Before long they will use it to just create their own sites. Their own articles. Why replace just the headline. A whole internet of just google ai generated bs. Just search something on Google and everything from there on is ai generated. All results. All pictures. The maps. Everything. Nothing will be real.

Wow. Thats horrible. Google has been a shitty search engine for a while now, but this is even worse.

I quit using them as my main search probably 5 years ago. But I get that most people still use it and most people will be misled.

Awful.

Apparently this has been going on for a while but The Verge started sounding the alarm 3 months ago. They know most people won't read more than a couple sentences past a headline if they even open the article at all. Confirmation bias is about to go wild

"Hey, we got this new invention that kinda works if you don't stress it too much, so we don't really know what to do with it, but it's hype so we must include it somewhere prominently. Ideas?"

Like reinventing the wheel, only it's "intelligent" now.

"But we already have headlines?"

Of course that does not address the economical/political conspiracies involved here.

AI is a scurge on humanity & our environment, and so is Google. Use other search engines.

Why is Google so determined to cannibalize itself?

What Google is accomplishing with this change is tighter control of their results.

This is disappointing and only serves the interest of Google.

Ok wait... Can I use AI to change clickbait headlines into actual summaries of articles, without hyperbole, or people getting "slammed"? I am sure googles goal is only to create more clickbait, but if there was a way to do the opposite, that would be the first good use of AI I've seen.

Is there any way I can hide AI on Google? I'm using Vivaldi (which is a Chromium browser).
