#Google #Search results polluted by buggy AI-written code frustrate coders

#source: https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/01/pulumi_ai_pollution_of_search/

Google has indexed inaccurate infrastructure-as-code samples produced by Pulumi AI – a developer that uses an #AI #chatbot to generate infrastructure – and the rotten recipes are already appearing at the top of search results.

"there's nothing dangerous about sharing ideas and discussing things.
the only thing dangerous is withholding information from you that provides you having a complete and total perspective of what the truth may be."

"what happened to the internet? where's the rest of it?"

it wasnt always like this.

#AI #technology is destroying #online #search 😱👎

Source: https://www.businessinsider.com/ai-chatbots-chatgpt-google-bard-microsoft-bing-break-internet-search-2023-2

The other kind of search — "exploratory search" — is the hard one. That's where you don't know what you don't know. What's the right phone for me? What's the deal with the Thirty Years' War? Getting a satisfactory answer is more iterative. You throw a bunch of keywords into the search box, you scroll through the links, you try new terms. It's not perfect, and it's skewed by the profit motives of advertisers and the implicit judgments that #Google makes behind the scenes about which pages count as authoritative. But it's what made it possible for us to find a needle in an online haystack.

Google Search’s new highly cited label helps you get to the source of a story | The Verge

Google is adding a new “highly cited” label to search results frequently sourced by other publications, the company is announcing today. Anything from local news stories, to interviews, announcements, and even press releases will be eligible for the new label being added to the search result’s preview image, so long as other websites are linking to it. More info is also being added to Search’s “rapidly evolving topics” and “About this Result” notices.

Obviously, this is not a replacement for due diligence. Patent nonsense is just as 'highly cited' as anything else these days.
