When I search for anything on Google or DuckDuckGo, more than half of the results are useless AI generated articles.
Those articles are generated to get in the first results of requests, since the search engine use algorithms to index websites and pages.
If we manually curate “good” websites (newspapers, forums, encyclopedias, anything that can be considered a good source) and only index their contents, would it be possible to create a good ol’fashioned search engine? Does it already exist?
I too was frustrated with the ever decreasing quality of search results. I spun up my own searxng instance and use that. In my experience is usually better at finding what I’m looking for.
