It's absurd how Google will simply ignore the keywords in my search to feed me whatever it's trash algorithm decided fits my search.

And the decline in Google Maps has been shocking. Maps has gone from always reliable to being "trust it if you like wasting time and burning fuel" bad.

I don't know what the hell happened at Google, but it ain't pretty.

Hah it wish I kept this search I did once. I was searching something about lsd. It somehow decided to replace it with "acid" but then showed results about related to pH lol

It’s even worse. I’ve been using ChatGPT a lot in situations that’d be Google searches before and I love how you can fill in so much detail and it will actually provide you with better results. With Google, additional detail is actually used against you. With enough keywords, it will match just about any site to your query.
