The time wasting SEO BS is all but non existent in my use. ChatGPT has nearly eliminated Google because if I want to find the best 10 films involving aliens in the 90s by obscure directors I get exactly that, instead of three million pages of trash.

Actually you're probably getting someone's list of 10 best films that got copied to 1000 more sites and ended up training ChatGPT...

Still counts as a win I guess?

I've asked very complicated contrived combinations that don't have any results on Google. GPT-4 still had no issue assembling the list.
