Google is in trouble
Bing is coming in hot with AI tech. Yeah, that Bing. Also: the Instagram cofounders dropped a new AI app.

I've been using https://duckduckgo.com/ for a decade I think. It's one of the factory-installed choices on my iPad and PC. I believe it uses Google plus other search engines, but doesn't track you.I don't get a sense of Google declining at all. There's not even the slightest hint among anyone I can think of considering using a different search engine.
They'll just have to rely on the billions of users who they can use.And if Google can't track and sell my data, nor use me for ad view/click sales, how will they make money to survive?
Very true. I don't even think of using another search engine. I can't think of a reason why I should.Google has a hold on many of us through Android, Chrome, Maps and Gmail.
Sure might use another search engine now and then but they got us locked in to the ecosystem.
You should Google that...I can't think of a reason why I should.

I use DuckDuckGo on Chrome browser. It seems a good compromise for me, as it still searches Google, but not exclusively, and offers a degree of privacy over straight Google searches.I gave Bing Search another try after hearing it was improved by ChatGPT, but got disappointed!I agree with Google that its Bard AI can be incorporated in other digital products like Gmail, Maps and YouTube, but it should not be used in Search, at least at this stage.
Thanks, @Admiral Beez for the recommendation. I will give DuckDuckGo a shot.I use DuckDuckGo on Chrome browser. It seems a good compromise for me, as it still searches Google, but not exclusively, and offers a degree of privacy over straight Google searches.
