Many people nowadays prefer using the like of Perplexity instead of Google search. But I think we should use both depending on the goals we want to achieve. If we want to do research and make our own unbiased opinion with relevant references then definitely Google search is a good search engine to use while using Perplexity for some specific questions we want a quick answer for, then use Google to further research. So, I believe Google search engine has still a long life to go while helped by Perplexity, in specific cases. The AI innovation will not replace Google as Google was designed and built with AI concepts, not generative AI though but AI search engine concepts and programming using cross-referencing multi-level pointers system dictionaries structures Linked Lists.

I personally believe that Google search will remain for years as it provides a way for independently making conclusions from references. Using paid and free resources. Professional and layman sources.

What do you guys think?

I almost never use Google search anymore s it does not carry on a conversation like ChatGPT or PI. This reduces the need to type so much as there is always context for further prompt engineering. In addition, you don't have sponsored content shoved at you, or paid items surfacing to the first page.

Of course, you must always take what you find with a grain of salt, and be sure the answers are legitimate. I may use Google search to confirm some information, but I find the confirmations are almost always positive.

It is quite astounding how accurate and up to date some GenAI tools are.

Purpose built GenAI tools like PMI Infinity are, of course, very reliable and hooked to great PMI sources.

Hi Mike I get your point and agree totally with you. But when doing research I find it still an assurance I am doing things right by confirming the information from the AI with Google search engine keeping references; of course, taking into consideration that there are algorithms with the Google search that promotes advertising. I find though that AI with Complex and non factual queries on data the AI has not been trained on, struggle many a times. What are your takes of AI searches for Complex research?
