I asked GPT why search engine results are so awful since it and other LLMs became popular with the ruling class. Either it told me what I want to hear, or I'm not the free software lunatic I'm made out to be.

I'd like to post the whole thing, but GPT is extremely verbose for how little it actually says. I hope that my paraphrasing (denoted by brackets) is clear enough.

This will be a thread so I'll make my replies unlisted.

@mhjohnson I get the feeling that @trumpgpt isn't actually #GPT and it's just run by some goofball TBH

Well, I think I found a yearly use for #GPT lol. I always have the worst trouble converting 12 hour time to 24 hour time. I was never a math wiz in school, and that's an under statement! Although I was decent at biology hah. While making my own #38C3 lectures list, I'm using GPT to convert CET to pacific.

I do have to say, the only AI feature that brings any sort of use to my life is the built-in quick responses in @kagihq search.

Basically, if you type a question mark at the end of your search query, it's going answer your question based on the search results. It also annotates everything it claimed with the exact source where it found it. Saves me a few clicks every time.
