Search wasn't broken Google needed a business plan and chose web ads. That is what broke search. The bifurcation of interests between selling ads and serving search results.

Then don't use Google? There are alternative and promising search engines now. Google is not the only game in town.

I don't. I was simply pointing out the business model's effect on Google. I participate with a search that is uses a subscription model service.

Who cares what's real if it's useful? We use all the times fictions that are not "real" but are useful, such as law codes, corporations, religions, etc.

I hope Harari appreciators will one day realise that social constructs are real too

When you're doing scientific research, or looking for public transport; the difference can decide your career's future or likelihood of you going home at night.

careers are just social constructs; and I've not seen yet Google maps fail to find me a public transport

> careers are just social constructs;

Well, too bad that that social construct supplies you the tokens that allows you to buy food.

Or do you imply that food is not real, because everything leading to it is also unreal, even if it's physical (e.g.: money). If that's the case, try to survive without it for a couple of months.

This is because Google Maps doesn't use LLMs, but standard and deterministic indexing methods working on hard data provided by governments.
