As LLMs become the go-to for quick answers, fewer people are posting questions on forums or social media. This shift could make online searches less fruitful in the future, with fewer discussions and solutions available publicly. Imagine troubleshooting a tech issue and finding nothing online because everyone else asked an LLM instead. You do the same, but the LLM only knows the manual, offering no further help. Stuck, you contact tech support, wait weeks for a reply, and the cycle continues—no new training data for LLMs or new pages for search engines to index. Could this lead to a future where both search results and LLMs are less effective?

    Using anecdotal evidence is a cheap trick and I believe you know it. It’s not evidence at all. Numbers show that I’m right and you’re wrong in this case.

    So… got any?

    “Think of the children” is used as a thought stopper by the political right to push their laws against humanity through.

    I refer you back to your earlier comment analogizing LLMs to “csam”.

      You know I’m right and try to troll because you either dont like it or have an agenda. In both cases, thats a you problem.

        So I take it you’re not going to post those numbers, then.

          Of course not. It’s literally 5 words in a search engine.

              I can and did, many times. I also wrote articles about it. I just wont do you the favor to post any of them here because I dislike your attitude. You’re not open to debate. You’re trying to use rhetoric tricks to get around arguments.

                Why comment in the first place if you’re unwilling to back it up?

                This is a public forum, you’re not just answering me here.

                  For the reasons I mentioned in the comment before. It’s easy to get that information and you’re being disingenuous. Since you’re still going on and going around the same argument free bullshit, I will now get rid of you. Good luck trolling someone else.
