What I’ll delete them
You know what, I like this one better. This one sparks joy.
How did you enable the feature?
Hasn’t their AI search always included “expert” advice from Reddit, like eating rocks, and putting glue on pizza?
experts say glue on pasta is extremely healthy
I don’t know about expert but yes. Top results heavily influence the ai response and are listed as references and reddit is commonly high in results.
Hey horse is delicious
expert advice
Reddit
They asking an LLM for advice. So logically they want advice on being a dipshit. Where the biggest dipshits on the internet at? I mean besides wherever I am? It just makes sense to ask the reddits
Counterpoint: people used to be able to search for things. Now, SEO decides what the public is served by that process. Even though the people of Reddit offered the information freely, and also curated freely by volunteer moderators, it doesn’t serve the monetization interests to simply hand over that free information without an additional charge. (and here on the Threadiverse we’d rather argue about whether all people in Western civilizations should be killed) So yeah, an act of absolute desperation.
Maybe can read = expert

Expert advice? From Reddit? I’m not sure if I should laugh or scream my way into a padded cell.
I’m sure they’ll get their money’s worth. :|
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
