Something is going very wrong here.
Information on the internet should be in whatever format best suits the topic. The format that best serves the users looking for that information.
And search engines should learn to interpret that information and the various formats, in order to be able to best connect those searching information with those providing information. Yes, the search engine should adapt to the information and it's formats - not the other way round.
Instead we see "information" (or the AI-generated trite replacing it) adapt it's contents and format for search engines, in a bid to ultimately best serve advertisers. And search engines too adapt and change their algorithms to best serve advertisers.
As a result it becomes ever harder and harder for users to actually find the information they want in a format that works.
It's become so bad, that it's now more practicable to use advanced AI to filter out the actual information and re-format it, rather than go look for for it yourself.
As a human, you no longer want to use the web, and search... you want to have a bot that does that for you... because ultimately the space has become pretty hostile to humans.
