Google will have to resort to human curation of search results at some point.
Given that Google search only returns like 9 websites now, shouldn't be too hard.
Google sucks now, use duckduckgo or something else.
Been using Duckduckgo for a few years now and found it very good, although it's also on the downward SEO ruined path. Have tried Google occasionally and wow is it juat completely full of crap.
We'll go full circle and return to site directories.
Web Rings ftw
They won't pay for that, they would probably rather spend money on developing AI curation.
Yes but if they want an AI to index it, first it would have to figure out what an index is ;-)
