I thought of this recently (anti llm content within)

The reason a lot of companies/people are obsessed with llms and the like, is that it can solve some of their problems (so they think). The thing I noticed, is a LOT of the things they try to force the LLM to fix, could be solved with relatively simple programming.

Things like better searches (seo destroyed this by design, and kagi is about the only usable search engine with easy access), organization (use a database), document management, etc.

People dont fully understand how it all works, so they try to shoehorn the llm to do the work for them (poorly), while learning nothing of value.

    Maybe the detail you were searching for could not be found, because it did not actually exist.

    He said he clicked the source it quoted.

    Maybe if Google hasn’t been enshittifying search for 10 years, AI search wouldn’t be useful. But I’ve seen the same thing. The forced Gemini summary at the top of Google often has source links that aren’t anywhere on the first page of Google itself.
