"name": "But it could also allow other rivals to build better alternatives: search engines less cluttered with advertising; less likely to serve AI slop, less dominated by unscrupulous search engine optimizers. It could allow rivals to build search engines that celebrate the concept of a free and open internet, and don’t see what remains of the web as merely a substrate to build the AI you eventually hope to replace it with.\n\nThese search engines are bound to be smaller and less profitable than Google. But I can also imagine some people preferring them. And I think they could serve as a necessary counterweight to Google’s push into AI by creating real economic incentives for people to keep making websites — incentives that I once took for granted, and no longer do.",
