I think google knows that "search" as in non LLM search is probably dead in the near future, and LLM search other people beat them on. Google search is dead because its already an obsolete product heavily gamed by SEO. They stopped putting effort into it because they're already working on its replacement.
- VHRanger 2y agoAgain, LLM search does some nice things that google search doesn't, but that's also because google search sucks. Google search has been "llm based" since around 2019 - they've integrated BERT embeddings of your queries for a long time! Having those embeddings plug into a text generation final layer instead of a retrieval infrastructure isn't somehow magical. ChatGPT only seems better because it's not filled with crap the same way google and bing are. With that said, search does a lot of things that chatGPT is simply not good at. "Find a hardware store near me". "How does a E15 lightbulb head look like versus the one in my hand", etc.
