AI slop has just accelerated the downfall of search engines.
Attention based economy, advertising and SEO are the reason you can’t find anything useful anymore.

Is this because LLMs are getting better, or because search engines are getting worse?
Because they are definitely getting worse. I get redirected to a brand new slopsite daily.
