Google Search, like Yahoo Search before it, is on its way out of common use, and nothing will stop this tide. I give it ten years, so by 2035, until it becomes a distant memory.

Technologies that stay useful keep getting used, generation after generation. We still use spoons for soup. We've had refrigerators in houses since they became available. There are no "Millennials aren't buying refrigerators and don't like spoons" articles in the new york times. Its because these still work and work well for their purpose. If they just made google work well for search and kept it working well, there would be no shift in use.
