Apparently, Google's new AI-based search is quite honest.
(sh.itjust.works)
For those not aware, Google is rolling out their new AI-based "Generative AI" search, which seems to mesh Bard with the standard experience.
I asked it today why Google no longer follows their "don't be evil" motto... The results are pretty hilarious.
it's wrong answer actually based on user comments it scraped since it was a trending news when they changed code of conduct. news were actually fake and about 99 percent internet users are it up. in reality they didn't remove the "don't be evil". they moved it from top of the code of conduct to end of the code of conduct.
I'm wondering if there's going to be a real problem when content gets dominated by AI and AI starts scraping their own hallucinations.
iirc AI scraping AI has already started to become a problem as it tends to compound pre-existing flaws.
There's really no substitute for expert knowledge for content. The LLMs are simply going to speed up the negative feedback loop, exactly as you suspect. GIGO at its finest.
In a way it might turn out to be a good thing for the internet because it will force us all to reevaluate the rest we produce and consume online content.
It wasn't moved, the opening and closing sentences had don't be evil, they removed the preface paragraph at the top, but left they closing sentence.
Closing sentence:
The closing sentence that remains doesn't carry much weight without the preface.
