Google lost their way since 2015. What used to be a beacon of innovation and inspiration to push forward has stagnated into an also-ran of amazing but boring tech.

Absolutely YouTube has been the most successful Social Network of last 7 years. It is amazingly powerful and I use it daily. But, Google bought Youtube in 2006 and the platform largely benefited from improvements in networking and productivity tools more than in product innovations.

With ChatGPT I use Google search significantly less when writing code and debugging errors.

What's the point of search if most I can get are promoted results?



Promotion is good. Competition is good.

The issue is, promotion by more $$$, instead of more quality.
