    I love that analogy, and it works because sometimes I don’t want to go in, I just want to know if a small piece of info. When are you open until? Do you serve food?

    I finally watched the end of Kobra Kai last week and wanted to look up if the Sekai Taikai was a real tournament.

    The first link takes you to a wiki then you have to read through a load of random stuff to get to the no.

    The issue I have with AI is that if it had told me no (or yes), I wouldn’t have believed it.

      Online food/drink recipes are even worse. I don’t need to read about your trip to Tuscany, or Lille, before I get to the list of ingredients or the recipe. I just want the info.

        The thing is, that was because of another bad Google decision years ago. They decided to downrate short pages in the search results (such as a page with a nice simple recipe on it), and people realised they got no hits unless they padded the page with guff.
