Search for “Google Slides” & you may see that the first image they select for one of their flagship office softwares is... Someone’s SEO-cash-grab “custom product” spam. Plastic slippers with the Google slides icon on them? Google’s own intellectual property is being parasitized here. What chance do independent artists stand? Google doesn’t care, as long as they are paid by search spammers who, in turn, somehow think this will make money. #search #searchCrisis #AISlop #google #ai #sloppocalypse
Am I out of line for thinking this makes Google look very bad? As in “sell that stock they don’t know what they are doing” bad? This isn’t just me being a scruffy anti-capitalist hippie… this is just a bad look. For a company that is the front door to the web for millions to have so little consistency— for the SEO garbage to be lapping at their own projects. It’s tawdry, broken and depressing.
I have thought for a while now that we are witnessing the end of the internet as a useful tool for anything. It's only real function now is for communication by closed, invitation only, special interest groups, families, or organizations. Literally nothing else is trustworthy now. Ads are scams, articles are fake and wrong, search will not show you what you need, just what they're trying to push. It's useless.
