  SE Gyges made his long Bluesky thread "AI safety is mostly a sex cult" into an insanely long substack post, then hastily deleted.

  i know people use chatbots for search because search has been made deliberately bad, but i can't see how they use it. the AI Overview is a reliable source of wrongness, and remarkable claims that are absolutely not in the sources. does anyone have informed ideas on what they get out of this wrong answer machine?
