My theory on AI is it's the next iteration of google search, a better more conversational, base layer over all the information that exists on the internet.

Of course some people will lose jobs just like what happened to several industries when search became ubiquitous. (newspapers, phone books, encyclopedias, travel agents)

But IMHO this isn't the existential crisis people think it is.

It's just a tool. Smart, clever people can do lots of cool stuff with tools.

But you still have to use it,

Search has just become Chat.

You used to have to search, now you chat and it does the searching, and more!

Google doesn’t have to change search. It already returns AI generated crap before anything useful.

I was a bit wary of trusting the AI summaries Google has been including in search results… but after a few checks it seems like it’s not crap at all, it’s pretty good!

I think their point is that all of the content out there is turning in to AI Slop so it won't matter if search changes because the results themselves have already been changed.
