Bing Chat responses infiltrated by ads pushing malware
I really do not understand the benefits supposedly of this tech over a traditional search engine. All it's doing is pulling the top hit from Bing and saying it back to you in a chat format. The AI doesn't understand what IP Scanning software is, nor does it understand malware, nor does it understand anything about what you're saying, it literally just doesn't. It takes what you asked, stuffs it into bing, and reads out the results to you.<p>I understand why people want AI search engines, the problem is, this is not an AI search engine. None of them are to my knowledge. It's just an ML bot mediating a search between you and the engine. The web page accomplishes the exact same task, without the unearned air of authority.<p>Like, the IDEA of an AI search engine, an artificial intelligence that knows all this stuff and can weigh in alongside you with insight and comprehension, that's <i>incredibly cool.</i> But this is not that. ChatGPT <i>knows much</i> but <i>understands nothing.</i>
