I'm Gen X and recently been using ChatGPT a hell of a lot more than Google, especially for queries similar to sibling comment. Instead of trying to word my query optimally for search, I just write what I'm trying to achieve in natural language and I get an answer, instead of having to scan a few results to know if they're likely candidates. Even with the made up shit on occasion this is a win.


Google intentionally crippling search by routinely ignoring search terms or unnecessarily generalizing them is coming to bite them in the ass.


It's the only viable option for surfacing knowledge that is nearly gone from the dead internet.
