It autosuggests and I don't even have to click on links half the time anymore. I'd call that progress. Not ground shaking like ChatGPT but half the time I get the (right) answer to my question just by typing some related words into the search bar.

I don't know how many Google searches I did yesterday, but it feels like a lot.

It does has problems with certain queries beyond a certain depth, which I also get frustrated with, but I can go from having forgotten calculus to integrating by parts with the help of Google.

The auto suggesting where they filter prompts to only safe terms

You literally can't go to page 2 anymore

It ignores what you ask and answers what it think/wants you see.

Previously you controlled search now you are lucky if a site is even in the index.
