    Ironically, the best way I found to combat this is to use search engines that summarize result pages with AI (e.g., Bing Copilot or Perplexity).

    It still sucks even with those options, but it at-least reduces the need to go through several pages of results before finding the first relevant one. Still, the LLMs of those engines hallucinate regularly and give very naive answers, so they’re mostly useful for finding relevant sources IMO.

    Disclaimer: I pay for Perplexity. I use Perplexity every day but I haven’t tried Bing Copilot that much. I haven’t used ChatGPT much, I find it way too unreliable, I can’t trust its answers. I’m not an investor nor employee of either.
