"A traditional Google search is still best for the simple act of looking for things to do nearby, but AI Mode could prove to be a nifty tool for more tedious tasks like product research for online shopping — an instant chart comparing baby car seats is helpful, even if imperfect. Just always check the answers."
Exactly my experience. I don't understand people who go to chatgpt first.
I hate google so I dont use its ai or search
Except that traditional Google search is often filled with AI-generated sites without any value. I use DDG and if that fails it's simple to use their 'bangs' to try other engines.
Yup, LLMs are a backup if traditional search fails. A well researched blog post is way better than whatever the LLM cobbles together, though the LLM is often better than nothing.
All you get with google these days are ads
