Are most people just lazy to just Google search for answers?

Than post questions on here? Thought my kids were lazy … people just want to be told instead of doing some research on their own.

Combination of being lazy, wanting first hand experience and they are not good at crafting google searches.

Do you realize the irony of your question?

Sometimes google search will actually take you to a DCUM thread when you put a question into the system.

The info you get from google searches and the info you get from asking questions here is often different, qualitatively. I think most people do both.

I agree. 99% are Google questions "what is a big football school in Wisconsin"

Or they think we have a crystal ball " will my kid get into Harvard"

Such a waste of a forum

But really, can someone tell me the requirements to go to medical school?

But seriously, will my kid get into Harvard?

Here's a question. Does feeding your child's essay into chatgpt (even with the privacy setting enabled) increase its chance of being flagged by Turnitin? That's the $10,000 question I want to know. Google says "yes" but the reasoning provided is adjacent to my initial question, so I don't know what real answer is.

So what's the answer, DCUM?

Absolutely not. There's no way it's possible.

Some people like to interact with with other humans even if on an anonymous board- bc it’s more fun than just a one way monologue with google.

If you prefer Google, then why are you even on here?

Do you really think Google would have a useful answer to the search query, “are people on DCUM too lazy to use Google?”

OP’s question is a discussion-based one appropriate to a forum, not a one-shot simply fact question appropriate for Google.
