I can back up that claim by pointing to the popularity of other search engines
I would love to see that research paper. Just to be clear: you are claiming that google is... Not the most popular search engine? Or that it is losing popularity?
You still haven't answered my questions, though.
As to my point, it is that google searches have not failed me to date, AI has only improved it, and saying "but it gave me something wrong once!" is basically that "old man yells at clouds" meme.
It is a fact that Google results have been getting worse over time.
Care to back up that unfounded claim?
Other search engines don't seem to have a problem answering the question
Two for one! Mind giving me some supporting evidence? Nothing anecdotal, mind you. Show me that "other search engines" answer questions better than google, statistically.
Okay? As I said, google has been giving incorrect results for decades. Now, just like before, it gives incorrect answers sometimes. But it has gotten a LOT better at giving those correct answers.
Either way the point still stands.
What point?
I had someone correct me with a misconception about something because he googled it and thats what it said in the answer box
Oh, honey. You must be new here. Googling something, taking the first answer that fits your needs, doing zero follow up, and posting it confidently is nothing new. That has been happening for the last few decades.
It's getting increasingly difficult to rely on search results especially when google synthesizes them into questions and answers with little context
In what way? Like always, I have had to do a little critical thinking to gain anything out of my google searches. But now, sometimes the answer is right there. In what world is that a bad thing?
But you might just say "hurry durr it give me answer, therefore correct". Again, yes, that has always been the case. People will use any tools available to them to support their point. If a new tool has less than a 100% success rate, I don't see that as a problem.
Ah, dang, I know absolutely nothing about engineering or cars. I can't add a lot to the conversation.
For what it's worth, though, that picture is cute as all heck! I love that dress.
I'm not crazy!
Oopsy poopsy, you've activated my trap card.
I am not crazy! I know he swapped those numbers. I knew it was 1216. One after Magna Carta. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He covered his tracks, he got that idiot at the copy shop to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. That billboard! Are you telling me that a man just happens to fall like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy! He defecated through a sunroof! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I took him into my own firm! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was 9, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands out of the cash drawer! "But not our Jimmy! Couldn't be precious Jimmy!" Stealing them blind! And HE gets to be a lawyer? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance!
Well that's just a blatantly unfair comparison. I tied up a lot of people without their consent in RDR2.
Describing Bilbo "Motherfucking" Baggins, who set out on a very long journey with the express intention of burglaring a dragon, succeeded in that mission, had a casual chat with the, may I reiterate, DRAGON, along the way, walked away alive, and then played a direct role in murdering said dragon, as a "dragon attack survivor" is an interesting choice.
