Now you can generate coherent-sounding articles using LLMs, making the amount of trash even bigger.
Google making their search worse would be dumb, since all these LLMs also rely on it to some degree.
I see this sentiment quite often, is it field-specific? Cause in physics and chemistry, starting at 0 is really not required…
In this case, the zero value is really not relevant (since no-one would ever have it anyway). It would just hide the signifcant drift over time. A good scaling here would be based on some clinically relevant interval I guess.
