OpenAI plans to announce its artificial intelligence-powered search product on Monday, according to two sources familiar with the matter, raising the stakes in its competition with search king Google.
It’ll herd users to the new product. It’s like when reddit enshittified its mobile web page to move folks to its app. Both reddit; but they shot themselves in one foot to shift weight over to the other foot.
Are you saying Google is herding their users to the new product of their competitors? I honestly don’t understand what point you’re trying to make here.
Sorry, initial post was meant to be more cheeky than anything else: Basically saying AI folks like OpenAI have seriously damaged the quality of Google’s search results, and in doing so established demand for a new search option… and now they’re announcing a competitor to Google.
One foot (google) was shot to shift traffic over to the other (whatever this new shit is). Wasn’t meant to imply Google is in on it… the reddit analogy might just be muddying the waters, but the analogy was reddit as a company to search engines as a category.
