Edit:
The poll stopped me in my tracks but it’s actually even worse.
It should not take this long to get to imdb
Edit2: didn’t even realize it thinks I’ll “love it” based on things I look up. I don’t think I’d like it.
Edit³: IMDb was the example I used without thinking. I’m aware that there’s a link to it in the top card. It’s the other web results that I don’t already know about that I’d like to see. I now know there’s a hidden “web” tab. There’s also https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=example` but it’s still mildly infuriating that you have to know about these things to get the basic results we expected for years.
Damn. I switched to DDG like well over a year ago and thought I was just kind of putting up with it for the sake of privacy. Turns out I didn’t know how good I have it
Exactly. I’ve been using DDG for years now and when I have to use Google search for whatever reason, I am quickly reminded how crap ggl is.

Here’s duckduckgo result for comparison
Here’s AskJeeves result for comparison
Wow, that’s incredibly bad.
Damn, I knew Jeeves had fallen but this is actually baffling.
A poll in the search results, what the heck?!
They’re throwing shit at the wall I guess. Last week I got this in my YouTube feed:
Great, now they’re going to start giving us exams before we’re allowed to watch a video.
Are they trying to train an AI?
I doubt it. They know I’m into audio production and this is kind of a softball question. Maybe if they start giving me more advanced ones.
The Gemini logo next to the word “Experiment” makes me suspicious.
no, too stupid of a question
Simple questions with known answers might be a way to weed out malicious/untrustworthy responders.
Yes, control questions, in a form, with 20 other open-ended questions which answers actually have value.
This is solely for engagement. Trivia questions have no value for training models.
