They are, but I think it's interesting what's happening outside Google's reach. It's become increasingly cheap for companies to store information about each customer, which drives customization throughout that company's product offering.
There's a library built on ES that I have been watching on Github which promotes results based on ecommerce conversion data: https://github.com/ankane/searchkick
The only big change will come from a truly multilingual search. Some projects in the EU are addressing this need.
