I feel like Google is trying to speedrun killing their search service. It was already significantly shittier lately just because of all the sponsored bullshit and SEO spam, but this rush to cash in on the AI fad has really destroyed the last utility it had.
The other day I wanted to know when the first day of summer officially was. So I searched “first day of summer 2024”…before it would give me a big bold answer(June 20tg if anyone is curious)… Now I got a full page of car ads for model year 2024
If hoards of a people can change from IE to Phoenix / Firefox, and from Firefox to Chrome, I have faith that is possible to get people to abandon Google search.

The average user does not care. They will still use Google.

Everybody will eventually notice when it becomes useless.
