Why gory “Enjoy the Plants” pinpoints the problems with Google’s rapidly failing algorithm

The point is, if you search a totally benign term:

“Enjoy the Plants”, with or without quotes, and click on the first link –

—— you will find something wholly unrelated to plants.

*THIS IS MY ONLY WARNING – IF YOU SEARCH THAT TERM, YOU WILL SEE THE SEWER AND BOWELS OF THE INTERNET’S WORST GORE*

Click here to understand my point, if you want to understand why it’s important.  Don’t worry, it gets much better here, if you can’t already see it —>

(It made me feel bad about myself / life. It’s a very, very bad thing. I don’t think I watched all of it. I wasn’t putting it up to be unnecessarily exploitative. I didn’t really want to say what term to search, because it’s that bad.)

But, that’s my warning… here’s the point:

The end of this stage of the internet is upon us.  Google can’t beat the cesspool that is the internet. It’s okay, and it’s not their fault.
Google’s algorithm has failed, and the death of the 2nd (3rd?) phase of the internet is upon us. The simplicity behind an automated mathematical system for ranking relevancy has gaping holes that are starting to appear.  The capacity of spam, as well as lousy content (like this), to overwhelm these simple algorithms is starting to categorically, irrevocably fail.

Why should someone searching innocuous terms be subjected to something like that?  Doesn’t it suggest that the relevancy created from keywords is massively simplistic compared to the complex ways we will eventually search for data?  We know that 95% of internet users have no idea about efficiency or how to actually use the internet, but the read write web debacle proved that, like it or not, it’s not their responsibility.

The semantic web based off social graph relevancy ranking will bolster new formulas that will categorize with almost esp-like intuitive AI precision.
Something this stupid points out the major flaws of our current search engines, their limitations, and the need for a far more relevant way to organize the world’s information.  The future is now, or soon, or here, near. Maybe. Read this.

And yeah.. that’s the worst stuff ever.
