    google was originally successful because they didn’t fill their homescreen with crap, maybe they forgot

      They didn’t forget, they are now exploiting their monopoly after they killed competition.

        It’s not a safe monopoly at all, though. Most of my “question”-style queries now go directly to an LLM-based alternative, on account of how much Google search results have dropped in quality for that type of query. I only really use Google directly for stuff like finding something that I specifically know what I’m looking for, but don’t know the exact link to.

          SEOs destroyed queries so hard that LLMs had to come in and save it.

          What will the equivalent of SEOs for LLMs be, I wonder.

          This is at best a temporary reprieve, and we should use it to work towards a longer-lasting one.

          What search api do you think those services use under the hood? Funnily enough though, only Bing actually lets you use their API directly, services that build on top of Google are paying proxy scrapers because Google doesn’t sell direct access to their search results. I’m guessing they’ll open it up to capture that market eventually.
