If/when an LLM company starts their own search engine, will "googling" continue to be a thing?
I'm not Jim, but fwiw, I doubt the above will be an issue:
Google has been doing deep research in AI for a long time. Hinton, 2024 Nobel prize in Physics, was at Google. Hassabis et al, 2024 Nobel prize in Chemistry is at Google and now working on drug discovery by leveraging his Nobel prize work. Their Deep Mind subsidiary is producing quality AI research. I can't point to anything specific, but it seems unlikely that the idea of AI summarized search escaped them, and they do do a bit of it now. Hopefully they're working on cleaning up the 'hallucination' problem of LLMs and really making them ready for prime time. I bet (meaning that I have bet i.e. put money on the table) that whatever direction AI goes , Alphabet will be at the forefront in research and in commercialization.
