You're describing the exact (complex) problem that Google Search was born to solve. And at some point they successfully did.
If we agree it's something they can't solve anymore, letting them pay to stay is a disservice to the users.
- yunohn 1y agoYes, I understand that you/others think this is an already solved problem - my point was that as time passes and the world grows, it no longer is - they can’t exactly solve it satisfactorily for all.
- makeitdouble 1y agoI don't think it was ever a "solved and done" problem, but at least Google kept putting tremendous efforts to lead the arms race and bring a decent solution for most people. It wasn't perfect for everyone of course. I think they could still keep up if it was a priority to them. It's complicated, but they have a lot of the best minds of our generation after all.
- yunohn 1y agoI’m acutely aware that any topic related to Google Ads invites the blind fury of HN. I don’t want to excuse their shitty behavior, but I also dislike the illogical and irrational posts and threads that pop up about this topic on a monthly basis and make it to #1! However, if you are to make this argument - please note that for OP and all the commenters in this post who tested this, all of them got the official Midjourney page as search result #1. Unsure why we’re discussing this at all then?
