    Not news. Things like recipes have been put through the AI filter to add a lot of useless crap. Try looking up “how to roast a chicken” and getting useable results.

    It’s always someone’s life story when all I want is a discussion of the cooking process. That content is hard to create. It’s a lot easier to just have AI make up a fake life story.

      That’s why I’ve started using ai with web scraping abilities for my searches nowaday.

      Find me how to roast a chicken, and make an instruction list

      if I get decent results, double check the source site just to be safe and you’re set. Basically fight fire with fire.

      It sucks? Yes, adding another layer of complexity for filtering bullshit is not useful at all.
