At the same time, I've containered much of my interaction with Google so it can't draw on my past history. So I have no idea what I'm missing. It did have a tendency to feedback loop a bit too much for me in the past, pigeon holing me to specific websites. There's a huge trust issue, you leak your ID in about four common regular queries so I'm not so sure I can even beat it.
The core point here is that search isn’t going away, LLMs are just being added on top. They’re not gonna just turn off their page ranking algos, cause LLMs are worse than useless without cited sources
3) Filter out SEO spam and other crap out of the two.
Which is slowly becoming worse, and I'd imagine that would only accelerate now that would-be SEO spammer could just feed ChatGPT like and get a prompt for reasonable (for search engine bot) article
1) I want to find a certain website
2) I want to find an answer to this question I have
These often overlap, but not always. Google used to be great at 1), then progressively started to solve 2). LLMs are better at 2), but are useless at 1). It's like Google wanted to become a search engine for people who don't even know what a website is and just go to Google for 2).
I think the products "search engine" and "chat bot" should stay separate.
However, I'd like to see LLMs merged with WolframAlpha.
