Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

That's Google. Don't use Google.

[–] porcupine@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 1 month ago

but why would you want to search for things when you can just let Google show you all the great products and services from affiliated Google partners that you're algorithmically predicted to want to see based on all the information Google already has about you?

i just remembered that using google is even worse than chatgpt because you’re unwittingly using ai with every search

Gotta justify the $5 Trillion "investment" / debt laundering into make auto money snake oil somehow. Npoopia was valued at $3 trillion alone and they scrubbed their GPU consumer line for AI.

you know what would really make AI profitable? if it was default --someone in google rn

[–] ClimateStalin@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Surely if more people are using the thing that we lose money every time it’s used that’ll fix our problem

you sound like an old hand at this. do you have any marketing experience?

[–] JohnBrownsDream@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

They just mistyped "A la mode". Ice cream with search results incoming! Yum!

I think this is actually them A/B testing on giving up on automatically generating some AI bullshit with every search. Soon, you'll have to intentionally go to the AI Slop tab in order to make it generate the useless wrong info!

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

The AI slop tab will become the default though, and two thirds of people will never notice.

[–] VeryInterestingTable@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

Weird I don't have that. Must be because I don't use google huh.

I'm not a tech guy so I'm not sure what it is. But I think it's the gates of hell opening up.
