Bing and Google search are equally awful at finding what I need and I hope they both become irrelevant.

Why do you hope they’re irrelevant? I hope they become better

They get worse as time goes on. I’ve never seen them get better.

Seeing at how non-tech people use Google I doubt that.

Also cancerous SEO sites (with affiliate links) pop up all the time if you search for product info or comparison.

Try searching for a quote from an obscure show you watched when you were young. Not long ago Google would return pages of results. These days it's likely to return none.
