I think the bigger problem is that each answer it gives basically destroys a forest

That, and it's filling once-useful search engines with useless and even dangerous gibberish.

Yeah, that's a big one. Search engines had been getting worse, but the decline was turbocharged after all the LLM hype. Search engines are practically unusable now

LLMs, in their primary and most common uses, are planet-burning trash, but the important thing is the contrarian in this thread found a way to feel superior to those that don't like when material conditions get worse.
