I use Perplexity and I'm happy with it. I believe it applies AI to the query before searching like a normal search engine and then uses AI on the results. Whatever , it works well and better than Google
I dont think people want to replace search engines with ChatGPT. They want to replace websites with ChatGPT
1. A lot of websites are awful
2. Websites don't answer questions. They have information which can answer a question. ChatGPT reduces the need for critical thinking. (Not saying that is good)
Hm, maybe. So you’re saying “instead of having to read this potentially bad website, I can read this summary in a consistent UI,” do I have that right?
Google has broken the actual search function enough that the UX might be better with chatgpt if you don't know better? Like already you have to scroll past their shitty ai summary and some garbage SEO or sponsored results or add "reddit" to your search or something 🫠🙃
I don’t think it’s just that internet content got worse. Google’s search product also has made decisions to pull out content in ways that are increasingly useless or misleading
