Now, and this is apparently the hard part. Look at the results. NO don’t look at the AI bit on top, KEEP SCROLLING, there is more stuff down there. Look until you see a thing that appears to be a not bullshit source.
Click on that result.
Read it.
Congratulations. You learned something that is probably true.
Now, glancing over DuckDuckGo results tells me that kangaroos do fart and there’s no mention of that being unusual in any way. So now what do I do? I come back here and ask the person who claimed they don’t fart to please elaborate and why they claim that. What was gained in this exercise?
Why does you learning something require you to go and do all of that? You learned that OP is incorrect and you shared that with everyone here. Why are you adding steps? Is this genuinely a new concept for you?

Yeah, about that, sometimes there will be no not bullshit source or no relevant result at all even if bullshit. Depends on how complicated the question is, but search engines look to perform worse lately, too
Google: “Do kangaroos fart?”

Most people don’t have this skill. And a lot of those web pages are going to be written by AI, too.
Search results being 80% ai generated is killing me internally smh 😣
I’d like to politely decline.

Okay wise guy, what if an LLM told you the same thing? what would be gained then?
What if the comment your pointing at is wrong?
What if you didn’t need to have your thinking done for you?
The very first thing I said was that I agree with not asking an AI, ever, for anything.

Huh? There may be a reason why they said that and I might like to know?
You’re the one that was complaining that not just using AI was too much work, right?
Definitely not.
DDG just uses Bing under the hood. Why do you prefer Microsoft over Google?
Because neither DDG nor Microsoft is tracking me when I use DDG.
About that …

That’s DDG’s browser, though, not the search engine (which is what we were talking about).
And clearly they can’t be trusted. How you gonna confirm that they don’t make similar carveouts with their website?
Do you have a better search engine?
Ecosia, SearXNG, Startpage*, Presearch
A good starting point to discover new search engines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_search_engines
*I have many doubts about startpage privacy, I didn’t bother search tho
Do you?
Because it’s not Google.
It’s also Microsoft.
True.

This question is not complicated.
So Google good, Ai bad?
Is this an ad?
Are you stupid?
