Fair enough ... ... Was, Indeed, extrapolating. And doing so, considering that their "AI-oriented" efforts (to play catch up - with the "AI Summaries" and such) are being met with due revulsion.-

I think it's probably more realistic to think that the average person will find the simplified Google AI search tools to be modestly useful. Worst case scenario maybe they are seen a second tier to the new leaders/chatGPTs of the world. Heck, Facebook is still wildly profitable. A bit different because of network effects and all, but that's a product that is entirely been transitioned to a terminal phase where they are extracting as much cash as possible, and it is surprisingly resilient. The one big wild card would be a direct attack on traditional Google search by openai though. They potentially have a strong enough brand to do to Google what Google did to Lycos and Dogpile. SearchGPT could easily be a household name in no time flat, but I'm not sure OpenAI wants to focus on the old paradigm like that.
