    i really don’t want anything that further obfuscates the experience of me typing in a word and it showing me pages with that word. and i don’t know why i’d want to type a full ass sentence in natural english versus just keywords

      They’ve probably got enough machine learning to take keywords and figure out intent. That’s essentially what Google does with autocomplete. They (Google) use n-grams. So I expect OpenAI already has this all figured out.

      What worries me is AI getting things wrong and perpetuating lies that are also made up via AI (maybe even the same AI). Also, how will their algorithm work? Do they fact check things they display? I hate Google, but at least they do have somewhat of a push to ensure authority and trust via their algos.

        What would open AI offer that Google aren’t doing? I feel like they keep fixing something that wasn’t broken and now they can’t go back to the old good search engine.

      You don’t type questions into search engines? I’ve been doing that for well over a decade and it helps find others asking the same thing.

        I find that I have to do that now, because it seems the internet has been geared towards people that think you have to ask the computer a question instead of searching for key words like how it used to work.

        I find it more difficult now because often the search results are what the search engine thinks I want, instead of what I actually asked for.

          I mean, this is what we see/read in sci-fi series and movies at least since the 60’s.
