Is there an extension that warns you when you are wasting time reading ai-generated crap?

Case in point, I was reading an article that claimed to compare kubernetes distros and wasted some good minutes before realizing it was full of crap.

Most of the internet was already BS before 'working' LLMs, where do you think the models learned it from? I think what you want is a crap detector, and I'm with you. Any ideas good ideas and I'll donate my time to work on it.

For me it's uBlacklist with my personal list in front and some github page I found after.

FYI Kagi has an integrated Blocker/Upranker/Downranker similar to this. Under their stats page you can see, which domains have been blockes/raised/... the most.

The most hated one by far: Pinterest and all locale-specific sub-domains.

That's the reason why ai search engines like bing are so bad, it's based on top results that are the same crap.
