I didn't realize how important Reddit was to get quality results from Google. Without Reddit almost the whole 1st page is just SEO optimized sites. It's just ironic that alternate search engines are better than Google now.
I used Bing to find a parts diagram for my car after repeatedly failing to do so with Google. I’m sure I could’ve eventually found it with Google using the correct combination of operators and such, but at that point why bother.
What's even more annoying than google populating half the first page with ads is that the links don't even work half the time these days.
If AI art is just ripping off IRL artists than it's safe to assume chat GPT's training was >50% reddit & Wikipedia content.
That would explain why it's all written like wiki content edited by a redditor.
Fuuuuuuck... Imagine if chat GPT started amending its results with.. "EDIT: wElL tHiS bLeW uP oVeRnIgHt... tHaNkS fOr ThE gOlD kInD ReDdiToR"
That'd be so damn annoying haha
Like that story of a child saying "remember to like and subscribe" at bedtime because she thought that was the words for goodbye
Wait is that some kid IRL? Or we talking about gpt speaking as a child?
