The "AI" that Google's search engine seems to have is definitely feeling more "human" over time, but not in a good way --- it's like a stupid salesperson who has trouble understanding what you're trying to find. An analogy I have is that you go into a pet shop and ask for a black cat, and instead the salesperson shows you black dogs, white cats, and green gerbils (because they're absolutely cool these days and you wouldn't want to miss out on a great deal, no?)

They should have a checkbox to disable AI. :)
Something as simple as Apache Lucene would beat Google's algorithm any day for relevance.
But I guess Google doesn't care for relevance, they just care to show you ads.
