hitko31461yWhat's happening is those search engines are switching to GPT-like LLM for data retrieval. Which basically means they're becoming useless for anything specific because a) the more specific a topic, the less training data there is, and b) because LLMs can't really distinguish between a highly specific search term and other similar search terms unless specifically trained to do so.

What the hell is wrong with search engines?
I thought Google had turned to shit. So I decided to get on Duckduckgo as many hyped
It turned out to be way worse. You search for something with a slightly viral keyword, and it only gives you results for the keyword as if you didn't ask it anything else.
Bing is not much better either IMO.
Are we just getting too used to neat answers given by chatGPT, or are the search engines actually being worse this year?
