I guess they decided Bing doesn't suck enough already, so they want to make it even worse.

Hey Microsoft, how about instead of adding chatgpt, filter the results so Bing actually works as a search engine? That is, select only the search results that contain the search terms, rather than returning the whole internet in an order somewhat influenced by the search terms.

Bing is just catering to their core users here, turns out this is an excellent idea for consuming and serving adult content.

Try out Bing vs Google for this purpose, and prepare to be amazed.


Username checks out...?

Anyway, Bing being a pr0n search engine is equal parts meme and reality.

I like how Microsoft/Bing don't take themselves too seriously since usurping Google in this regard is a fool's errand at this point.


There's a well known phenomenon that everyone appends "reddit" to their search results as otherwise there's too much SEO garbage. The thing with search engines is you can actually tell how good they are by comparing a few queries.


Equal parts meme and reality makes it a reality, it seems to me.


I thought Google was doing that. I ask:

> What is the world record for crossing the English Channel entirely on foot?

It replies with swimming and crossing on ferries.

I’m confused, isn’t your question nonsensical?



He could refer to the fact that there is a tunnel, so crossing it on foot is possible.


What answer were you expecting?
