I think that ChatGPT3 does not matter a lot.

But a lot of people fed up with Google and will be glad to try something different.

It's like when Apple came and eat 15-20% of market of notebooks.

Dominance of Microsoft still not ended.

Actually I suspect that Yandex search is better - I like how they preview answers for technical questions. Picture search - seems that Google is the worst.

Maybe it's time to start search different topics in different engines.

Hm. Actually AI could help to implement such functionality

I had to use DuckDuckGo to locate some mailing list threads (about an apache jira issue) which were clearly on Google at least a few years ago.

So "hdfs forward seek" in Google returns nothing, but DDG does.

If Google isn't repurposing all its search compute to something else secret, I can't explain why it suddenly got all dumb and forgetful of the 2015s internet.

Yandex Search is decent, but over-indexed on Russian content. They’ve also suffered major brain drain since the war began so I don’t expect them to keep up with the AI arms race.

Why would they replace Google with another bloated adware search engine then?

I used to be one of these people, not going to lie, but Bing is worse than Google when it comes to UX. The results are not as high quality, bloated and really messy UI.

I switched to DDG and then Brave Search later on and I can honestly say that Brave Search gets a lot of things right. Mainly the results quality and the clean UI and widgets.

Now is a good time for newcomers.

At least I hope so.

Its very strange. There are many cases I noticed where I double quote search a string and it yields no results but once I do "my query" site:thesiteiknowitsfrom.com it gives the results.
