Death to CSS and we just render for the AI crawlers?

who needs the web?

Anybody who cares enough to confirm whatever stupid bullshit the AI probabilistically regurgitated without actual understanding.

where will ai steal the info from without the web?

Seriously, in my experience AI generated results are only actually correct maybe 10% of the time

who needs the web?

Generative AI that's who. For it to spit out information, it needs information. The argument may be that it is better at collecting all that information in one place and returning an answer, although we know it hallucinates responses. But to even begin a response it needs data, it needs the web.

How else would I access the AI? ‍️

My sister is a teacher and now has her students repeat back to her, "LLMs are not search engines".

Well, we could already be there for decades (not only AI, but search engines and other technologies, too)

LLMs, as the name suggests, are language models - not knowledge machines. Answering questions correctly isn’t what they’re designed to do. The fact that they get anything right isn’t because they “know” things, but because they’ve been trained on a lot of correct information. That’s why they come off as more intelligent than they really are. At the end of the day, they were built to generate natural-sounding language - and that’s all. Just because something can speak doesn’t mean it knows what it’s talking about.

If we can get food by going to the grocery store, who needs farms?

The idea that AI is a “google killer” and a replacement for web sites always struck me as incredibly dumb. I know that’s how many people use it though, which is fairly awful. So, AI gets all of its information from websites. If it puts websites out of existence, where is it getting new information from?
