Lifehack: when searching for general info on the internet now, I adjust the date settings to pre 2024. It seems to filter out the AI slop, and results in much more useful information.
Especially useful for looking up a recipe.

@PapyrusBrigade@cosocial.ca should have thought of that. Recently I got bamboozled while trying to follow a recipe for mayo. It turns out AI switched the ingredient order

@PapyrusBrigade@cosocial.ca I have a filter on my browser called Slop Evader which does that, and it searches before Nov 30 2022. And double-ditto on recipes.
