Anyone else experience this?
You run into a niche or weird issue. So you google “how to x”, “y not working on z” or “Error code: 123”; The 1st, 2nd, 3rd page are infected, probably 90% AI slop. Don’t have any luck even with the one blog post that was probably written by a human.
Now I have to go to YouTube. Look for a tutorial, 1st, 2nd, 3rd video all AI. AI voice, AI avatar, bot comments like “😍😍😍”.
Finally I reach a real video from a year or two ago that actually solved my issue. Took 4 hours when normally I could find it in 1 hour tops.
The other thing I discovered about AI is that the more the world changes, the less accurate it is. Seems obvious, but AI has almost no ability to tell between different software versions.
It hallucinates, and mixes together facts that shouldn’t be corolated but are technically related.
