Pretty crazy how in just a few years Google went from the way to access the sum total of human knowledge to a search interface that will give you correct information 49% of the time.

With the AI Google summaries, people aren't just cherry-picking the failures. The only time it is 100% is when there is an extremely easy and well-known answer to your inquiry. If it's anything you'd actually need to dig to find, it will hallucinate a fake answer basically every time.

Why do people never do this horseshoe theory bullshit to the nazis. "Wow Stephen, keep goose stepping like that and pretty soon you're going to be pro union and in favor of universal basic income." That's a sentence no one has ever said because it's a fucking stupid game played by weirdos.

Found my old iPod in a shoebox. The screen didn't work, but I connected it to my PC and miraculously was able to access the music I was listening to 15 years ago!

An ancient, beat up iPod nano (2nd generation) rests on my desktop.

Why wasn't the ghost dancing at the party?

A single panel comic laid out like the "they don't know" meme. A ghost stands in a corner by itself while other monsters all dance.

It's nice to have all of our eggs in one basket like this so we know where they are.
