Keep in mind that Google's results are also much worse than they used to be.

I'm using both Kagi & LLM; depending on my need, I'll prefer one or the other.

Maybe I can access the same result with a LLM, but all the conversation/guidance required is time-consuming than just refining a search query and browsing through the first three results.

After all the answer is rarely exactly available somewhere. Reading people's questions/replies will provide a clues to find the actual answer I was looking for.

I have yet been able to achieve this result through a LLM.
