The fact that you can express "Only show me websites run by Italian companies incorporated by Greece owners born in Turkey" for example, and it'll be able to filter through a bunch of stuff, just makes searching so much easier. Fuzzy-search is also on another level with language models.

		I'm pretty sure there'd be a double-digit drop in LLM use if Google hasn't made search worse every year for the last decade.
