I can't wait for the collapse. Personally, I only use it for "search" for very specific things (like very specific coding things that don't need a 2000 word artucle), because search engines are garbage now (because of AI).

Search engines turned to trash long before AI. It was SEO that killed search engines.

On top of that is Prabhakar Raghavan, the former head of ads at Google, who was made head of search in 2019.
