It has access to the Bing index, which is always crawling. It's not firing off network traffic.

Honestly you need to learn a bit more about WebMD in that case. I trust a schizophrenic screaming at a bus more.

Innovators dilemma. Search has huge margins because it is cheap to run. LLMs are not. Google gets 80% of revenue from search, Microsoft is forcing them to put a dent in those margins and laughing their asses off. Or as Nadella said in an i

Apple photos now offers full user controlled encryption. Google Photos has no such protections and never will. Apple may not be saints, but the fact is there’s one photo service where the photos remain yours, and another where a photo of yo

Yup, told it I was trying to build a search interface on top of a huge Postgres database and wanted ways to speed it up. Told me to check out Elasticsearch, which is promising.
