It's inevitable because it's here. LLMs aren't the "future" anymore, they're the present. They're unseating Google as the SOTA method of finding information on the internet. People have been trying to do that for decades. The future probably holds even bigger things, but even if it plateaus for a while, showing real ability to defeat traditional search is a crazy start and just one example.

It's ironic that you picked that example given that LLMs are simultaneously turning the internet into a vast ocean of useless AI generated garbage.

General web search will soon be a completely meaningless concept.
