    Yea…gpt just summaries and dresses your top Google search with an essay. It’s good for cheating on essays if you’re confident that the markers don’t spot the hallucinations, but if you need good sources, you still need to do a Google search and that’s cheaper, faster, takes less parsing to get your key information.

    It’s just a shame that some search engines are also mangling themselves for enshittification e.g. no word filtering using “-” because of advertising losses. I’ve noticed this with ddg and Google sometimes.
