I recently had an experience while doing a simple Google search that was so profoundly weird that it stopped me in my tracks.
Understanding this Google se...
So, yeah, LLM goes off down weird rabbit holes - and if you, like Alice, follow them down… that’s on you.
If, instead of getting off on how weird the response was the author just prompted - “I’m looking for the basketball memes about the NBA player from Turkey.” I suspect it would have gotten him what he was looking for.
If, instead, he shone it on and started playing along like he was distraught over Dario, I’m sure he could have led it to give him a suicide counselling hotline in 2 more prompts. And, honestly, which is the more common question to Google these days: a 10-15 year old NBA meme, or people distraught about supposed friends ghosting them?

looking at the search results, I would say the NBA meme. who the fuck asks the search engine for life advice? asking the chatbot about that sadly has become kind of natural… but to people the chatbot is the [AI company name] app on their phone.
