The information age is over.

That’s a stupid take. We’ve always had algorithms that show some results over others. This is just a different one.
There is no it, there is no being or whatever behind it.Using a predictive text tool instead of showing the Wikipedia summary is a downgrade.

There is no it, there is no being or whatever behind it.As the AI confidently gives me the wrong information, which it stole from a forum, talking about an only vaguely related process. It's one thing to present info as "here, hope this helps" vs "here's what you asked for, this is the relevant sentence highlighted."
If I didn't know it was wrong, it could've set me down a path that wasted hours of my time. It's happened to colleagues, and they weren't wise enough to know better.

Perhaps. The take is still stupid.
We still have the library to browse any way possible.

I'm not debating the quality of LLM responses, or the ethics of using various pubic and private data for training it.
I'm claiming:- it's not alive and has no personal motivation
- we still have the library, nobody took it away, we can still browse it

There absolutely is a being behind the AI. There's bias built in, so while it doesn't have personal motivations it is guided by the motivation of big tech. They've also been shown to lie, hallucinate and say essentially whatever in order to please the user.
The library is fantastic, a tool that holds almost immeasurable value. It's however nowhere near as fast or accessible as the Internet. While AI hasn't killed the Internet, every bit it's touched is worse for it.

You are grasping for straws, just to contradict me for some reason. None of that was implied in the op. You can go in the bias and how and why is the, but the fact of them matter is that is only a reflection of our real world. So using that as an argument is the same as saying ai sucks because we suck. It's true, but a pointless argument.
Btw: lies, hallucinations and "saying essentially anything..." Is the same thing. It's how they work. Nobody says it's ideal and literally everyone knows about it. It's something we deal with when we use it. There are ways to mitigate it and there have been progress there, but the tech works in such a way, that it might always be present. It's not machinations of a little evil elf. It's a technology.
Internet is the library.
It's there.
Use it.Has it gotten worse? It got worse before ai. It got much worse before it.
Unfortunately it's is the responsibility of the user to find the good stuff. -

The real problem is that search engines have been getting crappier and crappier every year. Google results are basically worthless at this point, all ads and sponsored content.

I don't like the "we compiled the entirety of human knowledge" thing. We didn't do that, we compiled parts of the public Internet. BIG difference.
Also it lies.

I'm sorry, does the library of Babel not exist?
