A3: Moving Beyond Googling
Posted in (A3) Mobile Forum, and Mobile Culture
I’ve created a podcast exploring what the future of “search” looks like. In this not too distant, armed with our mobile devices and access to new AI-powered search products like Search GPT (sign up to join the waitlist), I predict the soon-to-be ancient art of Googling will be a relic for the next generation. Culturally, this has huge implications, so I customized a ChatGPT 4o to discuss it with me.
Conversational AI will NOT be the catalyst that drives the new search. According to the brilliant book “Everybody Lies” by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, many users are habituated to typing queries and may find it uncomfortable to switch to voice interactions, especially for personal matters! Typing feels more private and controlled, as it is a direct interaction with the device that does not involve speaking out loud. We are a typing culture!
However, curated and summarized search results that are conversational and complex are bound to change how we collectively ask questions and find information.
