Attached: 2 images Right now if you search for "country in Africa that starts with the letter K": - DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya. - Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same. This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke: "There are no countries in Africa that start with K." "What about Kenya?" "Kenya suck deez nuts?" Google Search is over.

    I’ve googled error codes for programs with hundreds of thousands of users and had 0 results.

    Really Google? You’re telling me out of all these people that use / develop this application, that no one, kot ever. Once, has ever written hay error code down anywhere you index?

    It’s all so fucking shitty it has to be intentional but I can’t for the life of me figure out WHY. Showing more ads? Maybe htnyhetrs other options. People will just use them. Making everyone dumber? Saving bandwidth??

    I don’t boy the “so has just gotten that good” narrative. It’ll leave out sites from 2010 when it would be useful to see them and include them when it isn’t.

    I just don’t get it.
