In a similar vein, I was trying to find something on Facebook (yeah, I know, but it was a funny work thing) today and went to use the search function to look for the FB page in question (searched the exact name) and if you just hit enter the new AI assumes you're asking it a question. It's FB! It's not a search engine! Why is it trying to give me a phone number for the police department I'm looking up to see their insane post?! I want to see the page! The page with the name I searched! On the app I searched in! Now you have to click a separate button that specifies you're looking to search through FB.... In the FB app!

This AI crap is already k.i.l.l.i.n.g. me.
