Plugging into chatgpt how to play a certain game for example spits out clear and concise information I’d spend the better part of half an hour scraping reddit for and subjecting myself to psychic damage. And it makes me feel bad in turn that I’m part of the problem polluting the earth with this crap. Honestly feels like the internet has been enshitified on purpose just to make people have to rely on ai to navigate it without throwing your hands up in frustration.
I admit I have started using chatgpt instead of google scholar. Google has become absolute garbage. I recently switched to a self-hosted meta search engine called SearXNG, and it has been better.
