Thinking 5 years out, we could be in a place where, for some information, the authoritative sites have gone out of business, and others have just given up trying to get views, so Google’s answers become even worse because its data sources (the sites) are not updated or don’t exist any more. There’ll also be no good site link results because there are no good sites trying to compete with AI answers.
Seems like a new form of #Internet #enshitfication could be on the way.
