Ramin Honary<a href="https://tilde.town/~ramin_hal9001/articles/ai-is-an-orwellian-nightmare.html%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AI is an Orwellian nightmare</a> I used to be able to search for things using a search engine. It would point me to a source of information, I could decide for myself if the source was good or not. But not anymore. Recently I just wasted a lot of time trying to find something using a search engine only to get lost in an ocean of AI slop.I finally gave in and asked my question to ChatGPT and it answered my question perfectly, it even showed me where it got it’s sources of information. The places it linked me to were either no longer existent (if ever) or only vaguely related. But it at least created the appearance of citing factual sources of information, in whatever way the statistical models have been trained to give that impression to the humans who use it.In Orwell’s novel “1984,” we saw how a single government agency took all control over information, how the staff would keep a database of facts but constantly alter these facts to fit the view of reality that their despot “Big Brother” wanted the citizens to believe. The same thing happens now with LLMs presenting a very carefully tuned image of the facts in the database.AI chat bots are an innovative new method of brainwashing, one which nobody could have ever imagined possible even a few years ago: get everyone to trust a mechanical Big Brother because it chats with you like a friendly fellow human would.(<a href="https://tilde.town/~ramin_hal9001/articles/ai-is-an-orwellian-nightmare.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Full article here.</a>)<a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/ai" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/tech" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/internet" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#internet</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/politics" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/chatbot" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChatBot</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/llm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/chatgpt" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/orwellian" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Orwellian</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/georgeorwell" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GeorgeOrwell</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/bigbrother" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BigBrother</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/criticalthinking" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CriticalThinking</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/searchengine" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SearchEngine</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediverse</a>

Question does the search engine "Metager" solve some of these problems or is it subject to the same algorithmic engineering as are the major players Microsoft, Bing, Google? <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/metager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#metager</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/searchengine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#searchengine</a>

Ramin HonaryCan’t escape the slop I disabled <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/ai" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> assist on <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/duckduckgo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DuckDuckGo</a>, but even when I do, I still get a bunch of search results that point me to 100% AI-generated web pages. Nowadays anyone can just fuzz search engines like <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/google" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Google</a> for lists of commonly searched queries, then generate slop responses to these queries, then cache the slop, and then use shady SEO techniques to get these slop pages to show up at the top of search results. And this is what I have been getting from a lot of my web searches lately, content from slop shops.A part of me thinks companies like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon may themselves be investing in these shady slop shops to deliberately make traditional search engines useless, which would “incentivize” people to use <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/llm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> -based AI like Gemini or <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/chatgpt" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChatGPT</a> more often, though that is purely speculation on my part.If you had asked my 20 years ago that the <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/internet" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Internet</a> of the future would rapidly devolve and become increasingly useless as time went on, I would have dismissed you as a paranoid crackpot.

Bhavani Shankar 💭Which search engine do you prefer? These are my favourites: 1. Mullvad leta 2. Searxng (self-hostable, sometimes just fails or gives results in other languages) 3. duckduckgo html 4. Mojeek has interesting new results 5. Ecosia turns ads into trees <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/searchengine" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#searchengine</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/search" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#search</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/privacy" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#privacy</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/mojeek" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mojeek</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/searxng" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#searxng</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/duckduckgo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#duckduckgo</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/mullvad" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mullvad</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/ecosia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ecosia</a>

eobetAlso, UK based <a href="https://mastodon.social/@Mojeek" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@Mojeek</a> is actually the only alternative <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/SearchEngine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SearchEngine</a> with its own crawler, but it unfortunately shows because their results are DIRE. Additionally, their countdown to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/enshittification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#enshittification</a> is already telegraphed by a tone deaf CEO who brags about his "two exits" on their about page. 🤢🤮

eobetBriefly tried <a href="https://mastodon.social/@kagihq" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@kagihq</a> as my <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/SearchEngine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SearchEngine</a> too, but they have embraced the polluting lying machines (via <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenAI</a>) and only their lowest tier paid membership excludes it and their chats/forums are full of creative theft apologists. 🤖🔥🌍️
