Logan Kilpatrick, lead product manager for Google DeepMind, Gemini, and all AI products at Google, said Google AI Mode will be the default for Google Search "soon." He said this after Google made google.com/ai go directly to AI Mode's interface on Friday afternoon.
it seems like they want me to type mobile phone in the search box, and spend 10 hours looking at every fucking phone for sale in the entire UK, until i find the one i want.
proper customer engagement, I wont play that game.
It doesnt effect me.
I haven’t used google search since windows 95.
I switch between Qwant, Startpage, Ecosia, ghosterysearch, mojeek and searxng.deliberate.world
The nearest I get to ai manipulation is when I use Gumtree.
ai is absolutely shit
an example:
I have been looking for a phone to install linux.
I settled on the Oneplus Nord N10 5G
so I searched Gumtree.
Nord N10 5G: is changed to: road nw10 5g, WTF
oneplus Nord N10 5G: is changed to: oneplus nord 110 5g, WTF
Gumtree boosts customer engagement by a third with Phrasee AI.
customer engagement, they got to be fucking joking.
