Whoever at Google thought this was a good idea should no longer be involved in search! Reddit is a terrible source of information, it's all confirmation bias and unqualified people giving advice upvoted by unqualified people to vet it. It's worse than Yahoo Answers because it looks more trustworthy on the surface but has worse quality of information.

Which was fine, until we had the bright idea of feeding it all into a neural network as a collection of facts. Then we gave that neural network a voice and a personality. It spoke with the utmost confidence as the expert on any subject. Truth, lies, facts and falsehoods all blended together and regurgited in an infinite stream of babble. I vacillate between LLMs being an interesting fad with limited usefulness and an apocalypse that'll throw the world into chaos. I'm back on the fence again I suppose, leaning towards the latter.
