Google is dying, Facebook is dying. Chat GPT is taking over! In the 2020s, do platforms ever get replaced? This is a really interesting article from Neil Patel highlighting the different use cases for different platforms. For example, we're constantly told Facebook is dying when Facebook is growing year on year. So is Chat GPT going to overtake Google? The simple answer is probably not. Google is still growing more quickly than Chat GPT and Gemini hasn't even gotten off the ground yet. Marketers need to understand that different platforms are used for different things.

Early thoughts on Apple Intelligence... Google really is in trouble. We’ve spent the last 20 odd years interfacing the web through it, building an entire ecosystem around itself, SEO, search ads, etc. When people realise there’s a way to get (largely) better, contextually refined information from the web using LLM’s, that model will disintegrate. It’s an arms race. You'll probably have seen that Google introduced its AI-forward search in the States a couple of weeks back, prioritising an AI-generated overview based on the user’s queries ahead of old-school search results. You can absolutely see what they’re trying to do - preserve the golden goose at all costs - but it didn’t get off to the greatest of starts. One user asked how they could stop their pizza topping falling off, and was recommended that they should use glue to keep it fixed in place. Until they all fix hallucinations, that kind of thing will happen. Apple is striking a careful balance between integrating AI across its product range (as ever, capitalising on its tight relationship between software and hardware), feeding users with some key benefits of AI tools without giving them all of the guard-rail free functionality you might enjoy with Gemini or ChatGPT if you used them directly. Still, I await gleeful media reports of rogue responses generated when the tools drop in Autumn. As ever, if you want to get to grips with these tools to explore how they might impact your professional and your personal life, the time is now. We're in for an interesting year in the tech world.

Google’s New ‘AI Overviews’ Feature Faces Backlash ⇨Last week at Google I/O, Google unveiled its ambitious new ‘AI Overviews’ search feature aimed at providing streamlined answers to users’ queries.  However, this rollout has not been smooth sailing.  →Here’s everything you need to know: ⇨Google introduced AI-generated summaries above standard search results. ⇨It’s goal was to offer more direct and concise answers. →Here’s how it is facing backlash: ⇨Inaccurate Responses: There have been reports of bizarre and misleading information. Some examples include recommending glue as a pizza topping and suggesting eating rocks. ⇨Viral Concern: These inaccurate responses have gone viral on social media, drawing widespread criticism. →Here’s how Google respond to these backlashes: ⇨Quality Statement: Google asserts that the majority of AI Overview queries deliver high-quality information and claims the shared examples are rare exceptions. ⇨Action Taken: The company is manually disabling AI Overviews for specific problematic searches as they are identified. This situation highlights the importance of rigorous testing and quality control in AI rollouts. While innovation drives us forward, ensuring the reliability and safety of these technologies is crucial. →Google’s experience serves as a reminder that even tech giants must continuously strive for accuracy and user trust. And at Chatzy, customer satisfaction is our top priority so we work on providing the best experience to consumers through our services. ⇨ We at Chatzy build AI agents featuring conversational memory, designed to interact with customers in a more intuitive manner and, ⇨These AI agents can be easily deployed across platforms like WhatsApp, Messenger, Twitter, LinkedIn, SMS, websites, and mobile apps.

Google is considering introducing a paid "premium" AI-powered search feature, diverging from its traditionally free, ad-supported model. Why it Matters: This move could reshape Google's revenue strategy and the tech industry's approach to AI integration. Zoom In: Faced with AI's high computational costs, Google is considering paywalling-specific search enhancements, a direct response to ChatGPT's challenge since November 2022. The Big Picture: Google's AI monetisation move reflects an industry trend and may impact the free-access internet model amidst its $175bn ad revenue. Also, according to Raptive, the internet publishers' organic traffic due to Google SGE will be slashed by 20% to 60%. #Tech #AI #Future #Google #Search #Digital #Revolution #Premium #Strategy #Monetization #Challenge #Computing #Internet #Access #Trend #Impact #Industry #Shift #Evolution #Integration #Response #AdRevenue #Disruption #Transformation

Breaking digital news ⚠️ For the very first time, Google is considering placing its content behind a paywall - specifically premium search including their new AI features and search-generative experience. The Financial Times has reported that the technology giant is debating adding AI-powered search to its premium subscription service (Google One) which currently allows users to access Gemini and Gemini Advanced, Google’s alternative to ChatGPT. While Google is yet to offer an official statement on this news it’s suspected that the decision is based on AI zero-click searches cutting ad revenue, and because the new AI features could cost more to run than the original features. In short, AI zero-click search may affect their business as people wouldn’t have to visit sites to receive the content they’re searching for, and by creating additional server costs in generating AI search. What do you think of the news? Would you be willing to pay for an AI-powered Google search? 🔍 #DigitalMarketing #SGE #Google #ArtificialIntelligence #DigitalNews

Google has reigned supreme in the world of search engines. While various challengers have emerged over the years, few have managed to make a lasting impact. However, the landscape is now shifting, as a new contender has stepped up to the plate - Perplexity. Recently, Perplexity has emerged as a formidable competitor, setting its sights on disrupting Google's longstanding dominance. In response, Google has launched AI Overview, introducing AI capabilities that signal a new era in search technology. Just last week, the introduction of ChatGPT's web search feature has further intensified the competition in the realm of AI-powered search. We are now witnessing a fierce race among these three advanced tools, each vying for user attention and reshaping the future of search engines. It's clear that a new chapter has begun in the search landscape, with profound implications for how we access and navigate information in the digital age. #chatgpt #perplexity #google #searchengines

Big news 🚨 SearchGPT is coming. On Google you: 1.) Search for something 2.) Scroll through tons of links 3.) Maybe find an answer Now, you'll be able to use SearchGPT to: - Search information in real-time - Get relevant sources - Have back and forth conversation about your question This isn't too different from how I use ChatGPT today, but SearchGPT will be more focused on providing attribution to sourced information. These days, I'm not sure "sourced" makes me trust content any more than AI-based content. Do you know how many definitions there are of MQL? No one can agree. Some interesting stats: - ChatGPT gets around 10 million queries per day. - Google's gets around 8.5 billion queries per day. According to Search Engine Land, Google's search market share fell to 86.58%, down from 86.94% in March and 88.88% YoY; depending on what source you find, it's been heading down ever since August 2023.

“Be greedy for answers. Google everything. Develop the habit of being interested." My older sister taught me this when I was a child. So thank you, sis. Now, I’m the person with tons of search queries daily. Sometimes, the diversity of topics may look like a mental disease or at least instability 😅 But it’s just a habit. So it was an ironic moment, by the way, when I found myself working for a SE Ranking that actually helps other businesses to rank high on Google. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has started using ChatGPT daily instead of Googling things. But the way Google is leveraging its technologies, like AI Overviews (currently available only in the USA and partly in the UK), to reclaim its leadership position is fascinating. Just imagine—Google understands what other related questions to answer to reduce your search time. It’s like when a hardware store website suggests you check out AirPods while you’re searching for an iPhone. Google predicts why you're interested in a query and expands the AI-generated answer to related topics. Magic ✨ Our team recently launched a significant study on the sources AI Overviews refer to. Business Insider has already mentioned it 😉 so now it's your turn to check it out 👇
