Over the last two years, a series of updates to Google Search amount to a dramatic upheaval to the Internet's most powerful tool, complete with an unprecedented AI feature.
Google is completely unusable. I know google fu, and had in the past been able to find the info i needed by knowing how to use key words, exclusions, focus terms, ect. But now i couldn’t get what i wanted even using the AI, which itself is more then useless. It literally lies at my expense, who’s only goal is to gas light me into thinking i got what i needed. Do not use google.
Hyperbole is a literary device used to draw emphasis through extreme exaggeration. Hyperbole is not meant to be taken literally, but rather understood as a means of communicating something specific. Those who hear or read the hyperbole should understand that it is an exaggeration.
Well this isn’t literature. I read every day that people take for granted that Google is now “unusable”. It isn’t. It’s a free service that’s gotten a little worse. End of story.

As an ex google ninja, what do you use now?
I hate to say it, but bing is my go to.
I’ll likely be downvoted for saying it here.
Been using DUCKDUCKGO recently.
Same, duck duck go I believe.
Absolutely false and obviously so. If it was completely unusable no one would still use or talk about it. Why lie to make your point?
Edit: really struck a nerve with this one…how dare I suggest Google, a thing I successfully use every day, still resembles some level of utility.

Hyperbole =/= lying. Re-read what I wrote.
