My rant du jour is about AI and how it has affected simple searches. It seems to be adding a layer between me and the information I am seeking. I was doing a genealogical search for a historical property we are touring next week and put in some related names, and instead of giving me some hits the way it used to, it gave me a whole spiel about how to do genealogical research. I went back on Ancestry and found more information, but it used to be I could pull up interesting non-Ancestry sources really quickly and now it gives me AI garbage.
That is annoying!Quote:

I also have added the Fluffbuster extension on FB, and it is amazingly effective at filtering out the crap of ads, suggested posts, etc. but it only works for laptops or desktops, and I know that most people view FB on their phones. On the rare occasion that I view FB on my phone, I am amazed at how much more obnoxious the experience is. It's like night and day.
I totally believe it; I was really just poking fun because it was such an amusing autocorrect error that I could not let it pass unremarked!Quote:

And customer services never answers complaints.
So I am on the alert anymore, but this website is so slick at mimicking the kind of clothing I would buy, I had to look twice. It is called “Sarah & Kate Charleston” . The hints that caused me to check out reviews on Reddit were clothes did not give fabric content. That was the big tip off, but then everything seemed to cost $49. That is a red flag because the Chinese companies I see price their stuff at $39. I suppose this $10 increase covers tariffs?
anyway, the Chinamen are getting more clever at marketing. The ladies pictured as Sarah and Kate are fake, fake fake.
