They’re personal to the extent that they track you and try to predict what you want so that they can make more money off of you, but giving you the active ability to select and follow content is different.

Shoulda been more explicit in that. Kagi is super personal(ized) as well, just polar opposite intention and implications

I use Kagi too. I guess it's a different kind of personal because Google will always angle it in a way that they can collect the most info about you to be used to sell more ads, while Kagi doesn't.

It will be interesting to see how Kagi responds to their first subpeona

I think the ship has sailed on this one, not sure how Google can be denial of the more intuitive search trend that is available today. Google should just bite the bullet and do ChatGPT styled search by intuitively asking questions with RAG capability. The thing is can they provide this service for free without the subscription fee unlike ChatGPT? Perhaps they could and should, and the cost will be much lower than buy…

They have it. It's called Bard. It's just not as good as one might expect from them.

Good news, it seems Google is launching a new powerful AI model that's called Gemini, and it can be and will be integrated with Bard [1].

Perhaps now we can see some proper competition to ChatGPT from Google, interesting time indeed!

Can't wait to get my hands on Bard Advanced with Gemini Ultra integration early next year, but the released video demos of their capabilities are very impressive.
