I found something like this when searched for antibiotic resistance in russian.
Mainstream, 70-years old boring truth is not the top result. Top result is fringe controversial study, that is reported all over recent news. This is so frustrating.
- Const-me 8y agoWhat did you expect? Antibiotic resistance is a new phenomenon. There's no science in modern Russia, and good sources on the subject like "The Lancet" and NIH's pubmed are in English.
- tim333 8y agoI guess you'd expect that but it could in theory be fixed with better search algorithms. Perhaps AI that could distinguish The Lancet and crank stuff.
- Const-me 8y agoThere’s no Russian version of The Lancet, nor Russian translation. Nothing to distinguish crank stuff from. People can distinguish if they speak other languages and search global Internet. Maybe I’m underestimating AI but I don’t think AI can do that currently, nor will be able in foreseeable future.
