    ‘Make this chat discoverable.’ Beneath that, in smaller, lighter text, was a caveat explaining that the chat could then appear in search engine results."

    UX designer here. People don’t read the little gray supporting text. “Search Engine” should’ve been in the headline.

    the ignorance required to lean into ‘AI’ in such a way all but ensures this

    it’s pretty telling that I hear AI talked about and seemingly used most by conservative types, I imagine because it’s being pushed by influencers in that realm and the same people bankrolling ‘AI’ everywhere. people that are already comfortable with blind faith… makes a bit of sense

    then you still have people who are used to challenging and questioning things still upholding skepticism and not trusting ai because it all reeks of shit

    AI for next pope!

    Apparently these people ticked a box saying “allow this chat to be indexed by search engines” and were surprised when their chats were indexed by search engines?

          I remember seeing the check box option appear to directly index to google, this explains why I can’t find it anymore.
          I tried searching unique things in my shared text and couldn’t find any of them on the goog

    Seems like a skill issue to be honest. Bunch of boomers checking boxes they dont understand, since thats entirely optional thing to create. Those public links arent created by themselves.

    Says in the article the users clicked “share chat” then shared the links with others on services like What’s App.

    Sounds like What’s App should get some flack for this too.
