Riiight… Next headline: “Pusher claims that his drugs not the cause sleepless nights and bugs under the skin”
Fox promises hens will be safe at his daycare.
I run sites for a major NGO for addiction recovery. We often ask people how they found us. More than half now say AI. We don’t have ads in our sites, but for people monetizing their sites this must be dramatic.
Also, Google must be bleeding ads revenue,
That’s not what the data said back in March. I highly doubt it’s gotten better.
So he’s lying. Good to know.
Oh so Google is only killing people and not the Internet? What a relief. /s
What a bunch of BS.
Amount of Google searches I’ve made since implementation of AI results: zero
People still use Google for search?
DuckDuckGo is way better.
Maybe I just am using it wrong, but DDG consistently gives me completely irrelevant results, while Google still gives me what I’m looking for about 70% of the time. Maybe I just need to learn the proper way to search with DDG but so far it’s been next to useless in finding me relevant info.
DDG also seems to exclude some websites from search even if you specifically give terms that should give results for a site. Try searching for any model from Bad Dragon’s website like “bad dragon nova” or another sex toy maker “mr hankeys beefcake” and the first result should be for the item on the maker’s website. I can’t ever get DDG to give results and safe search is already off. It has been like this for years.
Duckduckgo uses Bing which has deindexed a couple of sites.
I have found the emulation wiki to no longer show up through DDG. It’s the first result on Google but DDG gives you just Fandom garbage.
Are we counting Gemini interactions as search?
Ding ding ding
If you make up a new metric then you can say there isn’t a problem.
As my country likes to put it “ownself check ownself”
Search clicks were dead already from 19 out of the top 20 results being AI generated SEO garbage pages and “articles” that contains information that is blatantly false and even contradictory. AI just gives you that same garbage right there without having to click anything. The real info is probably buried somewhere two search pages down.
