I never heard of the movie and was enjoying the content you created that I thought was supposed to be funny.
Why do people Google questions anyway? Just search “heat cast” or “heat Angelina Jolie”. It’s quicker to type and you get more accurate results.

see? it’s easy
I just tested. “Angelina jolie heat” gives me tons of shit results, I have to scroll all the way down and then click on “show more results” in order to get the filmography.
“Is angelina jolie in heat” gives me this bluesky post as the first answer and the wikipedia and IMDb filmographies as 2nd and 3rd answer.
So, I dunno, seems like you’re wrong.
Search engine algorithms are way better than in the 90s and early 2000s when it was naive keyword search completely unweighted by word order in the search string.
So the tricks we learned of doing the bare minimum for the most precise search behavior no longer apply the same way. Now a search for two words will add weight to results that have the two words as a phrase, and some weight for the two words close together in the same sentence, but still look for each individual word as a result, too.
More importantly, when a single word has multiple meanings, the search engines all use the rest of the search as an indicator of which meaning the searcher means. “Heat” is a really broad word with lots of meanings, and the rest of the search can help inform the algorithm of what the user intends.
That’s why you just add “movie” to the search.
Or do IMDb heat or IMDb jolie or something
both queries give me poor results and searching “heat cast” reveals that she is not actually in the movie, so that’s probably why you can’t find anything useful
Have people just completely forgot how search engines work? If you search for two things and get shit results, it means those two things don’t appear together.
it’s truly shocking how bad people are at seeking information. It literally took me 20 seconds to discover she’s not in the movie heat.
I mean, when even people on Lemmy (who are supposed to be a bit more tech literate and stuff) insist that the solution is cutting a couple 2 letter words from your search query to make everything much shorter and efficient, are you even surprised?
I’ve been thinking for a while that people seem to be getting dumber and it might actually be true I don’t think that it’s a coincidence that fascism and other forms of conservatism seem to be on the rise pretty much everywhere in the world.
Why do people Google questions anyway?
Because it gives better responses.
Google and all the other major search engines have built in functionality to perform natural language processing on the user’s query and the text in its index to perform a search more precisely aligned with the user’s desired results, or to recommend related searches.
If the functionality is there, why wouldn’t we use it?
that is true but the results will be the same at best, not better
You won’t get funny answers if you do it correctly.
Because that’s the normal way in which humans communicate.
But for Google more specifically, that sort of keyword prompts is how you searched stuff in the '00s… Nowadays the search prompt actually understands natural language, and even has features like “people also ask” that are related to this.
All in all, do whatever works for you, it’s just that asking questions isn’t bad.
Google is not a human so why would you communicate with it as if it were a human? unlike chatgpt it’s not designed to answer questions, it’s designed to search for words on webpages
Tell me you’re too young to have used “Ask Jeeves” without telling me
We spend most of our time communicating with humans so we’re generally better at that than communicating with algorithms and so it feels more comfortable.
Most people don’t want to learn to communicate with a search engine in its own language. Learning is hard.
what’s there to learn about using search terms
Do you think you were born knowing what search terms are?
You weren’t born with the knowledge of written language either.
Surely you see how using a search engine is a separate skill from just writing words?
Point is, people don’t want to learn. Natural language searches in the form of questions are just easier for people, because they already know how to ask questions.
They’re literally just words? All you need is the ability to speak a language
Whattt
Why wouldn’t I include “the” “a” other articles etc. if I had language but no tech skills
Except Google has been optimizing for natural language questions for the last decade or so. Try it sometime, it’s really wild
typing keywords instead of full sentences is still quicker so nah
Because we’re human, and that’s a human-made tool. It’s made to fit us and our needs, not the other way around. And in case you’ve missed the last decade, it actually does it rather well.
It works. It will also find others who posted that question.
“You can just type your search in the top bar! You don’t have to go to www.google.com.”
As an IT guy, I know what to expect when I get to hell.
could not resolve the address “heat angelina jolie”
Why use many word when few work
As a funny challenge I like to come up with simplified, stupid-sounding, 3-word search queries for complex questions, and more often than not it’s good enough to get me the information I’m looking for.
It’s hilarious I got the same results with Charlize Theron with the exact same movie, I guess we both don’t know who actresses are apparently.
A statistical model predicted that “in heat” with no upper-case H nor quotes, was more likely to refer to the biological condition. Don’t get me wrong: I think these things are dumb, but that was a fully predictable result. (‘…the movie “Heat”’ would probably get you there).
While I get your point of the capital H thing, Google’s AI itself decided to put “heat” in quotes all on its own…
I tried the search myself and the non-AI results that aren’t this Bluesky post are pretty useless, but at least they’re useless without using two small towns’ worth of electricity
Non-AI results are not going to generally include sites about how something isn’t true unless it is a common misconception.
It’s not just any human though, it’s an actor, so movie related words should statistically be more likely.
As a comparison I ran the same all lower case query in bing and got the answer about the movie because asking about a movie is statistically more likely than asking if a human is in heat. Google’a ai is worse than fucking bing, while google’s old serach algorith consistently had the right answers.
Google made itself worse by replacing a working system with ai.
It might be the way Bing is tokenizing and/or how far back it’s looking to connect things when compared to Google.
Kagi quick answers for comparison gets this tweet, but now it thinks that heat is not the movie kind lol
The AI ouroboros in action
google strips capitalization from searches
Slut
They love it.

How can she be fertile if her ovaries are removed?
And the text even ends with a mention of her being in early menopause…
Because you’re not getting an answer to a question, you’re getting characters selected to appear like they statistically belong together given the context.
A sentence saying she had her ovaries removed and that she is fertile don’t statistically belong together, so you’re not even getting that.
You think that because you understand the meaning of words. LLM AI doesn’t. It uses math and math doesn’t care that it’s contradictory, it cares that the words individually usually came next in it’s training data.
It has nothing to do with the meaning. If your training set consists of a bunch of strings consisting of A’s and B’s together and another subset consisting of C’s and D’s together (i.e.
[]+and[]+in regex) and the LLM outputs “ABBABBBDA”, then that’s statistically unlikely because D’s don’t appear with A’s and B’s. I have no idea what the meaning of these sequences are, nor do I need to know to see that it’s statistically unlikely.In the context of language and LLMs, “statistically likely” roughly means that some human somewhere out there is more likely to have written this than the alternatives because that’s where the training data comes from. The LLM doesn’t need to understand the meaning. It just needs to be able to compute probabilities, and the probability of this excerpt should be low because the probability that a human would’ve written this is low.
Honestly this isn’t really all that accurate. Like, a common example when introducing the Word2Vec mapping is that if you take the vector for “king” and add the vector for “woman,” the closest vector matching the resultant is “queen.” So there are elements of “meaning” being captured there. The Deep Learning networks can capture a lot more abstraction than that, and the Attention mechanism introduced by the Transformer model greatly increased the ability of these models to interpret context clues.
You’re right that it’s easy to make the mistake of overestimating the level of understanding behind the writing. That’s absolutely something that happens. But saying “it has nothing to do with the meaning” is going a bit far. There is semantic processing happening, it’s just less sophisticated than the form of the writing could lead you to assume.
Unless they grabbed discussion forums that happened to have examples of multiple people. It’s pretty common when talking about fertility, problems in that area will be brought up.
People can use context and meaning to avoid that mistake, LLMs have to be forced not to through much slower QC by real people (something Google hates to do).
It’s not even words, it “thinks” in “word parts” called tokens.
Ashley Judd looks nothing like Angelina Jolie.
It’s not helpful for OOP since they’re on iOS, but there’s a Firefox extension that works on desktop and Android that hides the AI overview in searches: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/hide-google-ai-overviews/
You’ve sullied my quick answer:
The assistant figures it out though:
Maybe that’s why ai had trouble determining anything about AJ & the movie Heat, because she’s wasn’t even in it!
I think Gemini is “in heat”
Google was fine as it was before, now it does shit like this. I hate how AI is shoved down our throats. And the results on google nowadays feel so much worse and generic than a few years ago. That isn’t just a feeling I have, right?
They’re an ad company that just happens to offer search as a way to show ads.
Their ideal scenario is one where you search forever and never find what you were looking for.
They’re walking the fine line between being shitty enough that you have to refine your search multiple times (thus allowing them to show you more ads), but not being SO shitty that you give up and never come back.
This has been effectively proven by email chains made public through court proceedings. Former head of search left sometime around 2015 because the ad team was being allowed to make search worse to pump their numbers.
New head of search was the guy who ran Yahoo’s search department while they got eaten alive by Google, and he had been working Google’s Ad division after he left Yahoo.
Huh. Interesting! Thanks!
Really? Felt like Google jumped the shark quite awhile before this even started.
It been a downhill slope that just keeps getting steeper. They’re basically falling off a cliff right now, and their parachute is improving AI.
Not just you. I feel like search modifiers like “NOT” or “OR” haven’t been working for a good long while either.
They stopped supporting booleans in 2013. This is the list of currently supported search modifiers.
While it’s nice to finally have closure on this, it’s also depressing that they removed that.
Add obscenities to your search for the most optimized results. It drops the AI component and seems to provide the more direct results we used to get.
I just get X-rated results.
Say -fuck with a hyphen at the beginning so that it doesnt search for it.
-fuck, that’s good.
It appears you were looking for Lara Croft in the nude. I think I’ve found what you’re looking for…

If you comment out the title screen download section, it’ll install regular Tomb Raider instead.
Append ?udm=14 to your Google search results
I’d rather use anything else
I’m not opening that Rick Astley link, thank you.
No it’s a real link
It also contradicts itself immediately, saying she’s fertile, then immediately saying she’s had her ovaries removed end that she’s reached menopause.
Wouldn’t removing your ovaries and fallopian tubes make you not “fertile” by definition?
Yes, it contradicts itself within the next couple of sentences.
As per form for these “AIs”.
Hey, be fair, the “I” in “LLM” stands for “intelligent”. Please continue consuming the slop.
Leaving aside the fact that this looks like AI slop/trash bait; who the fudge is so clueless as to think Ashley Judd, assuming that she’s who they’re confusing, looks anything like Angelina Jolie back then
How do you know that OP even saw Heat? Maybe they were just curious to see if she was in it.
First, it’s the internet, you can cuss. Either structure the sentence not to include it at all or just cuss for fuck’s sake. Second, not everyone knows every actor/actress or is familiar, especially one that’s definitely not in the limelight anymore like Ashley Judd. Hell even when she was popular she wasn’t in a lot.
