    Seconded. Looking up a past event on a subject (like a band) that has had a more recent, especially “viral” event happen to it, is like wrestling a shaved bear.

    Nevermind that all of the recent shit is just articles quoting eachother, adding virtually nothing of value except noise.

      Human: Hey Google can you tell me how this band got started and the significance of their first album?

      Google: the lead singer was just admitted to rehab and you won’t believe what happens next!

      Human: oh that’s sad, I hope they get the help they need but about my questions–

        Then if do you click the link, the article has almost nothing to do with the title. No confirmations, no details, just random claims from someone who you’ve never heard of before.

        That’s more the type of prompt you would give a LLM, rather than a search engine. I’m not surprised that it results in garbage.
