- rovr138 2y agoI'm curious how websites will stay in business once it's kinda good or people just start thinking it's true
- pylua 2y agoSeems like eventually, it would become the dominant predator, and deplete its food supply?
- carlosjobim 2y agoYou will pay Google to insert your ads into AI generated answers. No need for the hassle of creating a website anymore. What a relief for businesses!
- pylua 2y agoThat’s an interesting thought. Just order your fast food through Gemini, or schedule your car repair or book a hotel directly through gemini without going to a different website. I haven’t even considered that.
- rovr138 2y agoI swear I saw a screenshot of Microsoft’s with ads inline. I couldn’t find it after.
- balder1991 2y agoMaybe the websites remaining will be genuinely interesting texts that you’d actually want to read instead of just query for an answer.
- rovr138 2y agoSure, things like blogs. But if you need info for a movie or something, where will the data come from? Back to newspapers?
- balder1991 2y agoI would imagine Google doing something like: “just use this service to keep your information up to date and you’ll get monetized automatically based on users querying your data”.
- rovr138 2y agoRight now they have us convinced to optimize how we give them data for them to be able to parse it (schema.org, etc). So we give them the data, optimize it for them ingesting it, then we loose traffic because people get the data on the search page. We'll probably have to pay them to give them the data...
- balder1991 2y agoYeah, but thinking about it now, this happens because Google has a monopoly on search and they can afford to dictate the rules. I think that with more companies competing with AI the field is a bit more even, and Google would be the one needing this kind of “advantage”.
- seattle_spring 2y agoI honestly wonder if there's eventually going to be "sponsored" answers. I shudder to even think of it, but it seems naive to think we are not going in that direction.
