I feel fucked up that I use AI now in place of google searches. (hexbear.net)

Plugging into chatgpt how to play a certain game for example spits out clear and concise information I'd spend the better part of half an hour scraping reddit for and subjecting myself to psychic damage. And it makes me feel bad in turn that I'm part of the problem polluting the earth with this crap. Honestly feels like the internet has been enshitified on purpose just to make people have to rely on ai to navigate it without throwing your hands up in frustration.

honestly, google is shit. even google's LLM is garbage. they missed the LLM rush and are playing catch-up. their product is horrible

i switched to duckduckgo about a year or so ago and so happy i did.

but yah, i use LLMs a lot of the time. other than video game tips / resources, they're generally the new search engines for better for worse. i try not to use chatgpt and will use deepseek or Mistral AI instead and lie to myself that i'm a better person for doing so.
