My favorite is when I search for how to do something in Blender (the 3d modeling and animation program) only realize that I'm wasting my time reading a slop article on what is ostensibly a cooking website because someone told their AI to write a bunch of articles on how to use a blender (the kitchen appliance) and couldn't be bothered to so much as read the titles before publishing them.
Task successfully failed(?).

DuckDuckGo respects your consent!
