    Kinda ironic that you posted a quote from Duckduckgo’s AI to make a point that AI sucks and is easy to manipulate.

      Our entire future of internet use from now until the next major technological upheaval is going to consist ENTIRELY of going between different shitty AI models to try to get enough coherent answers that we can possibly, maybe figure out some shred of truth.

      While the vast bulk of humanity just accepts whatever their most convenient chat model tells them.

        My fear is most will forget what truth looks like during this stage, and how to look for it, such that there won’t really be a next stage. Those of us who do remember will be pushed to the margins and hunted, or driven mad.

      I guess you didn’t understand the nuance. Duckduckgo was requoting Engadget and Futurism. It’s a loop of information that is controlled by media outlets chosen by the person running the bot.

        This has been the case since it was possible to pay someone to run from village to village shouting things… It’s just more now.

        Welcome to the party, beers over there.
