I don't know why you were deadvoted, it's a good point.

Though I feel that especially in the latest decade Google was a terrible source for finding things like the best product for usecase xyz and other recommendations. Because not only was the internet full of SEO clickbait fake comparison sites, but Google promoted the fake ones because they paid for it. They deeply undermined their own credibility. It was pretty much impossible to find real info with all the fake clickbait stuff around. Not to mention that even legit news outlets do a lot of paid "advertorials" these days.

I'm sure this will happen with AI too but with stuff like deep research I feel like I get better answers than Google has given me for years. Despite hallucination.
