Not sure who is doing this exactly, if it’s DDG or Reddit or someone else. I was looking for a comparison of epic vs steam and noticed that the description of the search result is AI-generated, instead of actually showing anything from the thread.

A user asks why they should buy games on Steam rather than Epic, and gets various answers from other users. Some of the reasons include Steam’s features, performance, community, and exclusivity.

    I have a problem with it. None of the information in that summary is useful except for maybe the list of Steam features at the end. So… about four words out of the whole thing.

    The rest is context that I can already assume based off the page title and the URL, without some AI limply regurgitating it to me.

      The first part literally summarizes the context, and the last part summarizes the reasons, it’s extremely concise you’re just nitpicking and bitchy.

        Or maybe different people find different things useful than you do. No need to be an asshole just because people disagree with you.
