I’ve never seen any search engine officially confirm this, but search across all search engines became terrible just a few months after the release of ChatGPT.
Which is why my assumption is that LLMs are being used to generate heaps of credible-looking, but ultimately worthless webpages. And search engines have to try to filter those out or their results would be even worse.
But then there’s no obvious distinction between a human-crafted blog and some spam webpage, which means the human-crafted blog is likely to be caught in the crossfire and get filtered as well.
Well, and on top of that, search engines presumably got hit by AI scrapers looking for training data, so that’s why I would assume, they now limit the search results to one page…
















Oh man, I was wondering where they get the gelatin from. Not exactly going to have many bones on Mars, except perhaps from dead astronauts… 😵💫
