Google maps has been hounding me to try AI searching, but I cannot for the life of me think of a reason why I would want to ever do so.

This is just another reason why AI sucks at concrete data searching. Give it a prompt for coming up with a new recipe for some dinner dish, sure. Help me formulate listicles for my shitty blog, okay.

But asking AI to find the nearby hospital, grocery store, or arcade seems fucking ludicrous. Fix your search indexers for real places don’t offload that to hallucinating LLMs.

It’s really annoying because SEARCH IS REALLY GOOD ALREADY and “AI searching” is adding a bad, buggy frontend over either the already good search or a worse version of search (vector DB searches).

Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
