Just heard this today - co worker used an LLM to find him some shoes that fit. Basically prompted it to find specific shoes that fit wider/narrower feet and it just scraped reviews and told him what to get. I guess it worked perfectly for him.

I hate this sort of thing - however this is why normies love LLM's. It's going to be the new way every single person uses the internet. Hell, on a new win 11 install the first thing that comes up is copilot saying "hey use me i'm better than google!!"

Frustrating.

I feel a major reason why people do this is, they don't want to waste time and effort going to one or two websites to actually know about something.

Honesty this is sad. Modern media are conditioning their brains for instant gratification and LLMs provide just that with quick and direct answers. But may not be the correct one. But people are willing to over look that fact.

This is totally it.

I dont care, ill continue researching actual data made by humans on websites and deem if they are trustworthy.
