Search engines

I use the big G. I've only now noticed the first hit uses AI. Didn't pay much attention before. I don't have a problem, per se, with AI being used as such. Should be its only use, imo.

Yesterday, I only wrote a few thousand words. I needed to do research. Cool beans. The coolest beans.
I had two interesting searches. Allow me to share.

I am digging deep and finding names that are unusual. I need to know how to pronounce them. Because I don't want to get it wrong. That would be awful. It's important to me. Names...are important.
okay

I have a name with the "h" in an odd place. So I type in the word, and my page is filled with information about this fetish.
I beg your finest pardon. 
Fetish?
Turns out, the name I'm using means "muscle", and that led me to a literal "muscle fetish."
I'm jaded in some ways and so naive in others.
It was hilarious.

Then, I need to pronounce another name, an archaic one. I type in the name and "pron" because I've done this so many times, it usually auto fills "pronunciation". More frosty beans.
I thought it had until my searches came back with adult materials because stupid AI thought I spelled p*rn wrong. 🙄 
Now I'm enlightened about another aspect of other people's lives. 
mercy

I also am redecorating a kitchen in my book and was all over G with searches for everything from color of paint, matching tiles, wet saw, crown molding and its numerous types, and doors, amongst other things. Took far longer than I wished. But it gives me a great starting point for tomorrow.

Today is recovering from yesterday's searches 😂 , cleaning around the house, and having Valentine's Day dinner with the Honey this evening.

Tomorrow?
Back to inappropriate searches and at least 7000 words on my novel.
