Blåhaj Lemmy - Choose Your Interface

The fact is though the average person is starting to replace their search engine with chatgpt, gemini, grok or whatever other llm and I have seen more and more small association using generative ai to make their posters instead of working with artist or soing it themselves.

Is this because LLMs are getting better, or because search engines are getting worse?

Because they are definitely getting worse. I get redirected to a brand new slopsite daily.

Search engines have peaked in early 2010s and hav been deteriorating ever since, becoming virtually unusable since ~2020.

Seriously, google has become unusabe without adding “site:reddit.com” to almost every search. I would like to see something like Perplexity be compared to a proper search engine - if it existed.

everything peaked in the 2010s ;)
I agree with the concern for Reddit in responses. Many times include the shit posts.
