Bloody hell. I was scouring the internet for recipes and ways to use baker's ammonia, and the first site on my duckduckgo search was an AI site. As someone who usually skips over pictures etc and jumps right into the text, the recipe started reading off to me when i was maybe three steps into it, and THEN i had to double back and check their main page, which turns out to be incredibly suspicious due to 1) low views on posts and 2) MULTIPLE posts on same days, and then finally on a closer inspection of their pictures, realised those were AI-generated. I could block the whole damn site since i was on my computer, but this is surely the early stages to the death of the internet
#techpocalypse#i've added dates for my image searches and now i have to add that for my usual web searches too??#if ddg is shilling for ai like this because of msft i'm using a new search engine#back to ecosia maybe#at least they plant trees with the pittance they get from people using their search engine
