What does ChatGPT have to do with "AI-assisted interactive Web search"? Did they roll out something new?

The GPT-4-powered Chatbot agent in Bing. But I think GP is pointing out that, since the models underlying ChatGPT (both GPT-3.5 and GPT-4) are trained on a wide corpus including substantial content from the public web, even when they aren’t integrated into something like the new Bing, they are inherently a kind of (potentially somewhat stale) AI web search on their own.

Bing is basically ChatGPT-4 with search retrieval integrated.

Bing has essentially stopped working for me, and I'm mad.

Mad because (pre ChatGPT) I had been getting better results for a little while than with Google, and also mad because I expect Google will soon screw up their search engine in the same way.

What I'm referring to is that popular queries suddenly seem to have a much larger "shadow" making it impossible to search for anything remotely similar.

This was already a degenerative disease degrading Google search, but what I assume is the AI infusion to Bing seems to have taken it to a new level.
