that AI overview really pisses me off. if i'm looking up information i want to know a person wrote it, not an algorithm creating an aggregate so that google can steal even MORE web traffic
I firmly blame Google, Meta, and to a smaller more cultural extent, TikTok for ruining the digital space as it is.
Forcing everything to become ~family friendly~ (in terms of explicit content (which has its needs to be regulated) but letting far right conservative content run free, prioritizing obtaining data to further sell to consumers, A.I, and completely destroying the simple ability to search, and suppressing marginalized voices / content.
You have to game things with SEO so people see it, then you have to funnel people in and take their email for some shitty free thing so they get on your email list, then you have to upcharge them. All that shit. Just to survive. Ruined the internet.
Not to mention that the AI answers are wrong! I was looking up a question about Dune and the AI said it was true but after reading some actual articles it wasn't true!
