  • When I’m starting from zero or worse with incorrect or half baked information, I’m one or two queries from a solid start point.

    By comparison using Google, I will have to wade through all the sponsored results then all the SEO results. Then who knows how many pages I’m going to have to start clicking on and reading to see if it pertains to what I’m searching for, which it usually isn’t.

    All that bullshit has evaporated for me.

    I travel a lot and I have a lot of interactions with people from other places who work in other fields and/or disciplines and it can get hairy.

    [edit] and all that covers multilingual words to boot.


  • In Defence of AI web search from my experiences:

    When I have no idea what I am talking about, have no or incorrect terminology, I have found Copilot and GPT4 (separate not the all-in-one) to be game changing compared to flat Google.

    I’m not using the data straight off the query result, but the links to the data that was provided in the result.

    And embarrassingly, when I’m drunk and babbling into a microphone, Copilot finds the links to what I am looking for.

    Now if you are just straight using the results and not researching the answers your mileage will vary.




  • That’s not entirely correct. If the phone is out of my possession, other than sitting in a container passing through an X-ray machine, then the phone is considered compromised. I wont use it as my primary and it can never ever ever enter another client’s site.

    Additionally I have done consulting in countries where my phone suddenly developed a case of the reboots, when none existed before.

    If you plan ahead you can have a fully functioning device that brings value to your life that leaves your primary devices and accounts untouched and more importantly, locked up and away from prying eyes and government officials who are “just doing their job”.

    I know I won’t prevail against an APT, but I can be successful everywhere else and a pain in the ass where I can’t.
