    Reddit internal search engine is trash, googling it is the only good way to find a thread on this platform

    So they’re still concerned with AI training from the data on their site which funny enough was the supposed reasoning behind the whole API price change that started 3rd part app shutdown shit show. It’s almost like they where being disingenuous about why they needed to suddenly start charging a massive sum for a formerly free service…

    Appending reddit to google search has become the only way to get meaningful search results, without it it’s a shitshow of clickbait garbage, I can’t imagine what it will become if it’s not allowed anymore to index reddit data.

    I understand companies not wanting data to be scraped for AI training for free, it’s not only reddit according to the article, also news sites, I think it’s a legit concern.

    I believe at this point governments should wake up and regulate the matter of AI training globally, leaving it to individual companies will only damage users all over the world.
