I think I understand a bit more about the "class divide" over LLMs. I recently had the misfortune to search for some information on troubleshooting Android, and I realized that for some topics the web has been shit for longer than AIBros have existed.

@bremner oh yeah, the SEO spam apocalypse got serious around 2020, when the main new thing for luddites to be angry about was still crypto.
AI was more of an attempted solution to this problem, via summaries making it that you don't have to sift through garbage to get a simple answer to your simple question, not its cause.
Now it's more of an arms race between whether AI SEO spam can beat AI summaries. This is not how I imagined the first AI wars would go, but it could've been worse lol
