@Sarahp how does this affect meta search engines which uses/used Google's search results? Do they have access to the underlying search results or are they just post-processing AI goop?
@Sarahp The Wiktionary definition of "google" is probably going to look like this in 10-15 years:
-----------
***google***
Pronunciation: /gu: gəl/
1. To destroy a formerly reputable business by shoving artificial intelligence into it carelessly.
- "WTF? I tried to log into my banking app and it was completely broken! They must have googled that site almost overnight."
2. (*dated*, 2000s/2010s slang) To look something up on the internet.
- "I used to need an afternoon to find all those song lyrics, but I was able to google them all in just 10 minutes the other day."
