OpenAI said to be launching search engine on Monday, directly targeting Google's

Yeah, seriously, wtaf? Adding AI has ruined search - building search on AI is obviously a disaster-in-waiting. Why would anyone even consider it, given we’ve seen how it badly it works.

All “hallucination,” all the time. (I keep saying, with “AI” output, it’s all “hallucination,” it’s just that some of it happens to correspond with reality.) Broken by design.

I keep thinking that, but I can’t even imagine how high the barrier to entry is at this point. (Not to mention you’re competing with the company whose name is literally synonymous with “search on the web.” It doesn’t matter how shit Google gets, as long as people perceive them as the only choice.)
