Have you seen the quality of google searches the last few years? I’m not surprised at all. LLM might not give you the correct answer but at least it will provide you with one lol.
Oh im definitely thankful for that and personally i dont use google, but alas many people are not tech savvy enough to switch to a different search engine if they even know that others exists.
Most people don’t even know the difference between an URL bar and a search bar, or more precisely: most devices use a browser that deliberately obfuscates that difference.
when browsers overload the url field to act as a search field, can you blame people for not knowing the difference? To the users its become a distinction without a difference.
They say that whats tolerated is whats encouraged. Browser software companies have encouraged people to be uninformed about the tool they are using. Easier to mess with them that way.

Thankfully Google is not the only search provider.

But they all suck, or rather the Internet kinda sucks these days. Google very much included in the sucking.
