Comment on Ask HN: Is Google Slowly Dying?parent

In that case llm are summarisation tool which exist in every major search engine. I dont see any use case where the search query for black dress or ticket to paris is going to change. Those require fundamental change in either computer vision or 3d vr. Listing the result in text is not a great experience. Those were the queries where search engine earns money. No one earns money in explaining quantum mechanics in rap

I don't think summarization covers it. It potentially replaces the whole research process. Let's say you need a new TV and you're not very knowledgeable, so you ask "I need a new TV, what should I get?", and it could inquire "Do you play fast video games? Then you need higher refresh rates and lower latency. Do you already have a Chrome cast or so you want a great smart tv?" etc etc. Once the conversation has progressed to the point where the requirements are set, this is the natural place to insert recommendations. Why ever go to Google?
