       “As AI search takes off, users will need to get into the habit of fact-checking their search results, he said.“Against what? That people are treating a search technology that invariably delivers falsehoods as a revolutionary, positive advance is just bananas.What an amazing statement. There is no universe where it’s a good thing that a search engine company forces people to do a second search to confirm their first, company-provided, result isn’t a straight-up lie.https://www.thestar.com/business/technology/2023/06/15/googles-new-ai-search-function-is-revolutionary-but-dont-believe-everything-it-says-experts-say.html

       @bhaggart There are other search engines, and probably not all of them will heavily rely on AI.Haha, even web-grandpa Lycos is listed as still active by Wikipedia.
