Was wondering what the hell was going on this morning.

    i’m not sure that i agree with this at all. Microsoft, itself, has been having issues lately, and i don’t think this is a Bing vs Google search thing. But i believe those issues are temporary.

    Overall, the direction that Google is taking with its search engine is probably a bigger threat to Google, considering, i suspect, people really aren’t going to like it.

    • Problem is that regular Google results are also getting worse. Google has to change something about search, and they’re most worried about chatgpt being a better alternative to Google search.

      • Google search needs to just branch itself off into several micro-search engines. It is useless as a general purpose search engine.

        Again, try searching ‘skillet’ and you’ll get more results on the band with the name than the pan itself. Make a media-based micro search engine where it’s nothing but music, movies, shows .etc

        But as big as Google is, they won’t do it.
