Google.com is today's Ai. No reason to believe it will stop improving.

Stop? I can't wait for it to start!
And yet their search result quality subjectively seems to be stable at best or declining slightly. If that's AI then it's certainly not as smart as the spammers and black-hat SEOs. On the mobile side, when the latest version of Google Assistant misunderstands what I want so often as to be worse than useless.
Still hoping to see some improvement but not holding my breath.
Well, Google search results have been declining for some years now, as observed by very many.
And there's nothing to Google.com more than a simple heuristic algorithm, which can be totally dumb to context and nuance.

Any pointers to such accounts?
