    The design is based on the false assumption that Google’s page-ranking algorithm favors accurate results and not SEO-gamed garbage. Google Search has been broken for some time, and now the company is relying on those gamed and spam-filled results to feed its new AI model.

    God I love this so much. Though I’d bet there will shortly be two Google search algorithms, one for us engines of consumption and one directly from 2016 only for the AI to feed from.

    At thrice the energy consumption, of course.
