if you want to go back to the 90s or early 2000s sure. But 4 years ago the internet was full of blogspam clickbait articles and fake news. LLMs have not increased that percetptably to me, the first 10 results on google were often crap 4 years ago and theyre often crap now
Yes, some of us are old and still remember the hope and utility.
I will agree that things have been on the downslide for a while but maybe its just the way google now works or that AI articles are free but I get a ton of them for any "how to" or "walkthough" type search. At least if I look up "how to make taco sauce" the article will tell me how after the mandatory life story and other bullshit.
