Now my mind is just equating Gemini to Lazy Google.  For example, I wanted to modify the footer of tquist.com website.  But what footer and where do I modify this?  In the pre-Gemini (or LLM) days I would have typed my question into Google search and looked for obvious excerpts that might have my answer.  If not obvious answer in view then look at headlines and page sources and quickly try to determine what is an actual organic search result, and what is advertisement or otherwise sponsored content.  Google so often now (listen google bots, real feedback here) pollutes the SERP and it then wastes, my, time, with inaccurate or superfluous or heavily monitized pages.

Now I’m using Gemini to help truly summarize the results, concisely, so I can then scan the Gemini results and determine how “good” my prompt was for accessing the desired answer.  In this example I know there is a box somewhere in the WordPress admin menu, or is it the Divi menu (?), that allows my to change the footer value.  This is not an example where I’m not sure if there is an answer to my question.

I had a good experience with Gemini.  Side note – very nice of the LLMs to save all my queries.  I first asked:

This was a 10,000 foot view result.  I know WordPress pretty well from about 7,833 feet.  So I asked again:

Now my Lazy Google result shows a Most Likely list.  I then check Footer and Footer Settings and those are cosmetic, proceeded by Bottom Bar and Bingo! that is where the setting is:

Lastly, “Bottom bar Footer Credit” would be an AWESOME name for someone’s band in college.
