Ad supported articles is a dead industry, Google realizes this better than anyone. People don’t go to the source anymore to answer curiosities, why would you read a whole article to answer a simple question when AI gives you the answer directly?
The last thing I googled is how to measure dress shirt size. Do you need context and nuance for everything you Google?
Do you prefer to click on the seo optimized first page results that are full of ads and read through a nonsense article about elegance in formal wear just to get to the instructions on where to place the measuring tape on your shoulder? I MUCH prefer the AI summarized response.
Most of the Internet is NOT intellectual writing, it’s blog spam to answer your daily curiosities and practical needs. A sufficienty trained model is a really good (and environmentally friendly) alternative.

Let me know when we get one. In the meantime, enjoy your thick, glue riddled, pizza sauce

What? That’s just stupid, like I’m not remotely claiming they are intelligent, but to dismiss their utility completely is just idiotic. How long do you think the plug your ears strategy will work for?
Pick any model that has come out this year and ask if my example query or any similar daily curiosity you would Google, and show me how it gives you “thick, glue riddled, pizza sauce”. Show me a single gpt 3.5 comparable model that can’t answer that query with sufficient accuracy.
if AI is answering, yes.
You’re being obtuse. You don’t need nuance in trying to figure out what size collar you should buy.
Wouldn’t this kill their ad revenue? Which is like…most of their revenue?

I meant why would people advertise on Google if it won’t convert to clicks anymore?
They won’t, and I’m saying Google knows that their Advertising cash cow is running out of milk.
context?, nuance?, verifying the AI slop?

not what I said at all. I simply stated AI answers cannot be trusted without verifying them which makes them a lot less useful
