The fact is though the average person is starting to replace their search engine with chatgpt, gemini, grok or whatever other llm and I have seen more and more small association using generative ai to make their posters instead of working with artist or doing it themselves.
When everybody uses AI to search, it becomes a closed system that holds all info. Doesn’t need to be productive, but it gatekeeps the knowledge that was free on the internet. It’s a self-reinforcing loop.
I work in infrastructure and what’s concerning is that younger guys are skipping learning to script to automate processes and instead just getting slop from LLMs that they have no idea what it’s doing.
Some have also relegated learning problem solving to it as well so when things go wrong, they’re clueless without it.
Google started making their search engine worse and always pushing things that they thought would make them money. It’s not surprising people are trying something else.
