      Even when AI is given search results it can struggle with anything that’s not simple. Kagi has a search integration and it references the websites, even then I often find mistakes, although much less without it.

      I don’t trust LLMs without this integration

      Considering in much of the world Google defaults to AI answers now, it’s just a matter of who makes up less incorrect shit

    What’s next? Temu as your default search engine? The hotline to your nearest car dealership? Maybe just sit a tea leaf reader next to your desk to answer your questions. The possibilities are endless!

      Why use a search engine at all when you can have your browser directly text your mom.

    Ignorance is bliss…

    A.I. means Assumed Intelligence, despite what you might have read elsewhere. Using it to do “research” is how you’re going to get first hand experience with so-called “hallucinations”.

    But you do you…

      AI means Artificial Intelligence.

      Nowadays people think that AI is only chatbots like ChatGPT, which are just LLMs.

        AI means Artificial Intelligence.

        It means Alpaca Insurance!

        Also, that is an algorithm and not intelligence. Logic isn’t the same thing as intelligence.

            The ability to comprehend and make use of knowledge based on changing contexts. An algorithm doesn’t have the ability to understand why it is doing what it does, nor does it have a way to apply itself outside of a predefined context.

        No, you didn’t “edit” your mistake, you completely changed the meaning of your response which makes anything after it look absurd.

        You originally stated that an algorithm was intelligence, the implication being that using your logic, you thought that a calculator was intelligent.

        As far as the meaning of AI, you clearly don’t understand the landscape surrounding the hyperbolic assertions made by ignorant journalism about the topic.

        Machine learning is one aspect of the landscape, useful as it is, intelligence it is not.

        LLM emissions on the other hand appear to emulate enough grammatically correct language to fool many people some of the time, leading to their mistaken belief that what is happening is intelligence rather than, at least from their perspective, magic.

        (Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. – Arthur C. Clarke)

        So, intelligence it is not, Assumed Intelligence is what it is, or autocorrect gone uppity if you prefer, an algorithm either way.

    If I typed “why should I use chatgpt as a search engine” would I get some self-celebratory wall of text, or be among the first victims of the machines uprising?
