Too late too slow. Google in European Union feels already today like a different website in comparison to Google USA where there is an AI answering (which is totally not enabled in Europe).

Meanwhile the crowds slowly adopting asking ChatGPT & Co about hotel recommendations and ChatGPT delivers.

And in Europe I need to open maps.google.com to search for places because a direct link from google.com is not allowed. It's a joke...

Europe has good intentions but the execution makes it fall behind... and they will realise when it's too late.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."

You say the lack of forced AI answers with their accompanying russian-roulette-esque accuracy as if that's a bad thing.

Interesting. Is that something they do with geofencing or by TLD? If I go to google.eu, I get redirected to google.co.uk. After Brexit, is this by design on theGoog's part to not have to abide by EU laws? Do I need a VPN so my IP appears to actually be from within the EU?

I'm really curious to see differences in how theGoog behaves.

The horrible AI driven answers that are more wrong than right are very much present in the EU though.
