A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Now you just gotta go past the AI overview, the sponsored results which aren't relevant, go through a few menus to get their website...

I remember my doctor showing me google and its "no nonsense" search when I was younger and it was brand new. Man how the mighty have fallen.

Google web search still exists, add &udm=14 to query something like: https://www.google.com/search?q=whatever&udm=14

It exists but it still sucks terribly.

If I search on "Burger King locations near me" I get a list of KFCs. And one Burger King approximately a thousand kilometres away.

The correct answer is that there's two Burger Kings within walking distance of me, and that KFC isn't Burger King.

I just use Google Maps for that.

Google Maps has very spotty coverage where I live.

Bugger. It's pretty much replaced the Yellow Pages for me, but I have the 'advantage' of living in a major city.
