    I haven't used Google in quite some time but today I saw they are including forums as a category on the search bar. I think it speaks volumes to the relevance of forums as it pertains to search.

    Wow!

    I'm almost speechless. :eek:

    AI searches have a place, but they aren't a replacement for human experience, and I am stunned - but glad - Google openly admits this.

    There has long been a nifty work-around for avoiding AI generated content by simply adding "before:2023" to the end of a search query. This works particularly well for Images searches.
