ALL A.I BASE IS FLAWED. A.I JAPAN 4 AUTOWAR ROBOTS KILLED 29 SCIENTISTS IN THE LAB.. THEY STOPPED 2 AS THEY WERE DISMANTLING THE 3RD THE 4TH KEPT SHOOTING AND BEGAN SATELLITE UPLINK AND BEGAN DOWNLOADING HOW TO BUILD ITSELF AGAIN. !
The answer to the question "why would anyone create a website if the AI can give all the answers" is one you gave yourself in the beginning of the video: Because they are passionate about the subject their website is all about. My hope is that if we see the death of websites and search engines, the internet will start becoming more like it was back in the day, full of passion project websites made by users instead of corporations, for the purpose of sharing their passion instead of just making profit.
@@RobotronSage By die, they mean becoming unpopular, the tech to host and read websites won't dissapear, even if all hosting providers would, one can just self host their website
Problem witch ChatGPT is that is "only" text generation AI. If it don't know answer, it "hallucinate" the answer(s); basically lies. AI hallucynation is actually one of the biggest problem in the ML industry
Agree, it's the biggest problem to overcome. However, given the speed at which AI is moving i don't think it will take long. In a podcast (HIBT), Sam Altman acknowledged this as the biggest problem, but thst they have some ideas on how to solve it. Very curious to see! For now i use ChatGPT / bing only as a helper and double checking myself. Still massively useful
@@enricotartarotti Ohhh wow didnt know that. Thanks for sharing. Although do you know of any possible ways they can solve this problem? At max what I thought was they could give some sort of confidence score showing how sure they are that their answer is correct
@@enricotartarotti it’s not really a problem if you know how to ask the right questions in the right way. I’ve been using it every day for months and only get wrong answers if I make a mistake, it’s like blaming your car for a crash when you don’t know how to use the steering wheel. All tools and machines need skill to operate, this is no exception. The issue is people don’t realise how poor their language and logic skills are. The power that AI has is 1000000 times the level of skill needed to operate it, but most people are too lazy to admit their own deficiencies or when they’re in the wrong or to improve their language and logic capabilities
Websites have been dead for years. There's barely been any money in that business. Most internet companies have been focusing on a SaaS model for years. To build a website you need to bring traffic to it and that has been notoriously difficult since most of the user's attentions are monopolized by a few tech giants
Thats true, SEO has been irrelevant for years. It has had many problems from privitation to constant algorithm modifications just based on location itself. Only ones that I hear ask me if I know SEO, is Ecomerce places that where it really makes no difference, because the ones that sells courses and all that says the sales is done threw social marketing.
Agreed. However One shall return from that which he came from... Lol Bcuz of the monopolies, websites are low key still relevant, if not are slowly making a comeback. i. e. Censorship, as well as overall control/management of said material
Hahahahahahahahaahahah Trust me this is all so stupid. Websites used to have virtually 0 cost to maintain. All you needed to do for a domain was write a letter asking for one.
Edit: TLDR; AI will kill search, not websites. AI will not eliminate websites. Websites will always be there for companies, portfolios, personal blogs, applications, etc. These are basically all the same reasons that websites are relevant now. Most people know that searching for specific answers, is cumbersome at best. For years now, most people visit websites for other reasons.
I don't look at any of those websites except to search. I'm on UA-cam almost exclusively. If AI will search for me then these sites don't ever get my click through unless I want to check the source.
@@justinwhite2725 you don't read personal blog posts, use your favorite web apps, look at pictures of things you're interested in, buy things online, etc etc?
SEO killed the internet. You just find links to shops if you google anything. I startet using Bing like two weeks ago and I noticed I am up to 60 times more effensive at searching the Web than before. I am searching for subjects I didn’t before because it became viable it’s worth the hustle now. But I mostly end up visiting websites in the end that Bing AI directs me too.
What if it doesn't know something? For example, you could be part of some niche community that's only known to maybe like, 1,000 or so people, and the AI could straight up lie to you about one thing about said community.
@@CoasterMan13Official since your typical AI pulls data from the web, how can you trust it? I will occasionally ask an AI about something I have extensive experience with and a great deal of knowledge about and the AI is never accurate. It repeats things said by others that are flat out WRONG. It is like Wikipedia without the HTML.
Tip of the day: Use specialized search engines. When I need accurate data, I often use a specialized search engine because they index a very narrow set of web sites. Google/Bing are OK, but they are not always as useful as other search engines. Bing is not Google so one can expect different results. I have found better results using Bing in some cases and in other cases, Google is better. I also hit the stacks and read actual books.
I find that google is better than duckduckgo(bing) for finding memes and popular references, but i dont know if i notice a difference searching for tech tutorials
12:45 "Finally the time where we [...] go all in to platforms" Yeah, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with destroying the open nature of the internet. With centralizing all control to one or a few entities. With AI that can easily filter what you’re supposed to know and what you’re not allowed to. What could possibly go wrong?
I don't think centralization is a problem. People go where they see value, regardless of centralized/decentralized. What I hope is not to have more random decentralized websites everywhere but more choice on platforms. Now if I want to upload video for example there's just UA-cam, would love to see more alternatives. I still think platforms are the way to go, there's just too few now
@@enricotartarotti Still, this is very problematic in many aspects, including privacy. Too easy to be cancelled. I prefer hosting my own because then I can say whatever I want.
@@Sasha-zw9ss This is my main issue with platforms. They make the rules (always updating), they control your content, their algo controls your exposure and in many cases that directly impacts income. Just look at the state of youtube and how excessive AI-moderation/rules/false-copyright have gotten. People roll their eyes when you bring up censorship and preservation, but if we're talking about internet content _in general_ being at the mercy of social management and retroactive 'living' guidelines... that's going to be kind of an issue.
I was going to write the exact same thing. The level plain field of the Internet must not be a few plataforms controlled by a few tech giants. That would be horrific for everyone involved. Whatever happens to the Internet the ability of just doing your own thing on your own corner must be kept by all means.
I think the future of websites will be the beginning of the website. I don’t want an AI to tell me what mountain bike trails to ride in Bressanone, I want a local to give me advice on mountain bike trails in Bressanone, in German, Italian, English and French.
Information is information, if A.I. could give reliable and trustworthy information about bike trails or whatever, I doubt most people would care that it doesn't come from real people. The problem is that current A.I. gives a lot of misinformed takes with confidence.
@@LeoVital I mean this is just wrong. we all know that communication is not ony about information. Non verbal cues are also very important. word of mouth will still be king.
This really seems like it would only kill websites that don't provide any kind of service and just provide information, though. For instance, if I want to engage with people on any kind of forum community, I would still have to go there and ask questions. If I want to submit a job application, I would still have to go to that website and submit it using their process. In fact, when I ask ChatGPT questions about how I can apply for a job at a particular company or how I can find out more about a very specific project, it will usually just give me a link to the website. If I actually want to perform a particular task, like get a job, contribute to a project, engage with a community, or use a service, that kind of thing still results in a website link. There are limits to what being given a few paragraphs describing something can accomplish.
An issue I uncovered with Bing chat is that it doesn't actually conduct live searches of sites but instead uses a cached version of a site. Depending on the site the cached version can be days or months old. So this lag will affect different websites non uniformly and hence always provide variations in "up to date" responses.
are you sure about that? because in the WAN show from LMG that i watched, they asked it about a product that they released literally minutes before and it found it
Did you ever try to use google to find the most recent information about a topic? Especially when it's more niche more often that not it barely works properly. Sure, it gives you results, but said results are often pretty useless.
@@enricotartarotti I asked for the email addresses of the city council members of Albany Oregon. It gave me people that were no longer on the council. I asked for the source of the list and it gave me the correct website which also showed the people recently elected. So I asked it what date it retrieved the information from. It said today and after some arguing I asked it what date of information the website was using. It gave me a date of two months ago, before the latest elected people took office. Which then made sense why it was giving me outdated information. I then asked it for what date the cached version it was using for a few other sites and the most popular trafficked sites were up to date. So my conclusion is that it is using website data based on when Bing updates it cached version of a site. The least popular trafficked sites get updated less frequently. UPDATE. I just checked asked It the same question about my city council members and it is still incorrect even though it is giving me the correct website as a source. Ask it what date of the website it is giving for its sources and you might see the variations.
The concept of feeding content directly into an AI database on the chance that you might get compensated if it gets used really reminds me of Snow crash. There were these characters just going around with wearables, collecting data for the central CIA database. I could see people literally going around and collecting all kinds of spoken and written text
I think it's gonna greatly raise the bar for content marketing. Garbage SEO optimization blogs and sites will fall away (thank god). ChatGPT creates the base article, then personal/expertise layered on top.
So, all of these options sound like silent dystopia. Either it's a monopoly or an oligarchy, these options all lead to a consolidation of thought and control. Goodbye, free web.
That doesn't explain why the UA-cam search has got so bad. In my opinion it could be two things 1) protection of information from China/Russia via limitation for political protection/gain. 2) protection of information from China to prevent videos from being cloned to TikTok. 3) A change in the way the algorithm works from a holistic approach to ML/Decision tree.
On point 1/2, then I wish they only apply these filters to countries requesting these filters. I'm fine with UA-cam having filters for China rather than having the whole website banned, but this should not affect any other country.
But websites won’t die. UA-cam is on the web, your sponsor brilliant is on the web, learning resources are on the web, etc - Chatbots can’t replace these. The web is more than garbage articles optimized for SEO. If this chatbot stuff can actually be made accurate, I can only see it killing those small websites that are purely designed for ad revenue.
My answer to this is: structured knowledge databases. I think there should public databases that holds factual knowledge in a strucured way that AIs can reliably access these. They contain facts like historical data, weather data, science, news etc. where everyone can agree on and are maintained by states or ngos. Everything that goes beyong this is "entertainment" and can be commercialized and is left for private content creators. The big upside with structured knowledge is, that an AI working on these information wouldn't make any mistakes anymore.
Interesting take. Do you think there will still be the risk of having "echo chambers" if we rely on platforms? I don't think everyone will be willing to dive deeper and be impartial with their research if this were to happen.
I personally would suspect the same thing, judging by how people are so lazy to research deeper, there's a chance people would not double check information and just take what AI would feed them. That's the scariest thing. Human complacency.
I have the same fear. People already believe everything they see on Instagram and Facebook, including the so called tech savvy younger generation, so while ChatGPT is really cool, I fear it will lead to even more misinformation and propaganda.
I think it's probably easier for the AI to be an "echochamber" in itself because of the creators bias or by creators blacklisting info as opposed to websites with user generated content. Bit Orwellian but certainly possible
Having someone that's creating such in-depth analyses about AI and the dawn of these chat bots is a game changer! Thanks so much for putting so much effort in 🤩
We're not in 2004. "Websites" aren't just made up of a bunch of articles about a given subject. There are social networks, there's wikipedia, there are google results with a lot of information. What had to die, died a long time ago. Nowadays, most popular websites provide services and that has nothing to do with ChatGPT and the impact it may have. ChatGPT will impact search engines and wikipedia and that's it for now. Even news outlets are safe from chatGPT for now, considering that chatGPT can't provide new information in real time.
When I try to search a topic, I can tell a lot of the results were not written by a human. The pages are one after the other of wrong information copied from eachother or the same bad source and reworded.
6:28 "Why would you want to visit an ad-ridden website to get some generic SEO optimized blog post?" Yes, I very much hope chatbots undercut those awful high noise/low info websites, leaving behind information heavy websites that exist because their creator has a topic they are passionate about (e.g. mine 😅). Before search engines were ubiquitous, there were still directories and mutual links between websites and even those webrings. So, I'm really not concerned about the continued connectivity and content of the Internet.
The majority of online content being platform-hosted under moderation that can arbitrarily suspend or terminate your account for drama on 3rd party sites, offensive content, politics, or algorithm goofs - is not exactly something I look forward to. There will always be websites and independent domains to pick up the slack but we've seen the dumpster fires on current platforms already and I don't think it'll go very well.
The idea of going from SEO to AIFO is simply genius. I wonder what new ways will appear to game the system. ChatGPT and the inteliigent chatbots are changing the rules of the game.
AI is already biased.... With AIFO it will be even worse than the SEO - based search is now. I wonder if it doesn't mean it can never make much of a difference in terms of search use.
I don't think current search methods will *completely* dissappear just yet, as for academic research you do need to explore the full sources, but I can see that being tackled right after common users switch to ai search
AI chatbots don't allow me to browse information. I can ask for specifics, but if I don't know what exactly I want and wish to browse through options, I need an old-school website. Same for galleries of products or art. For example, I've been looking for cool Warhammer miniatures recently, scrolling through available miniatures and looking at the pictures to decide which I want to buy. An AI can't help me with that.
One factor that might affect the "website to platform" path are the various bills out there rn that could potentially put platforms on the hook for the content its users post. The collision of these two possibilities could be disastrous for free speech.
Great video.. However, websites are not purely information via blogs... They're also business pages themselves; direct contact and access to companies and brands. Search engines serve as a directory the way yellow pages use to be made; *(I think that's kinda what was being hinted at towards the end of the video; one will still have go into individual websites to search specific details regarding brand/s & companies).
That LTT WAN Show episode you referenced/exampled at 5:05 was a good insert to your video. It was awesome to watch Linus' and Luke's initial reactions to Bing Search w/chatGPT throughout their whole segment of their show when they streamed it a couple or so weeks ago.
One thing that worries me about AI is that it may further complicate issues with false information. For example right now I can often quickly pick up when a website is spreading misinformation on something like climate change based on context clues around language/lay out/web address etc. If people switch to relying primarily off AI, those context clues would be gone so even people experienced in picking out mis info will struggle and the average joe will be completely out of their depth.
Great video! I am somewhat skeptical of what Microsoft CEO is saying. Whenever an industry is being disrupted, the companies disrupting it will tend to frame it as an improvement rather than that thing being totally burned down. They usually claim that the status quo will remain unchanged, and that their new invention will only increase productivity. This is because they do not want the bad publicity. But the thing is, ideally... search engines would prefer to not need partners. They want their users to stay on their site, collect their data, and not send them to other links. Therefore, their incentives are ultimately aligned to make their search engine better and better to the point where the user won't need to leave their site. Which leads to my next point, which I think it would have been worth addressing and that is: the AIs starting to generate the primordial content themselves by scanning social media interactions, science papers, surveillance cameras and yadda yadda.. and just writing the news and articles by watching humans doing things. Yeah, it might be sound far-fetched right now, but things are evolving so goddammit fast.
My interest in AI Chat Bots died as quickly as it started after I realized that it mostly just gives very generic and as non-contoversial as possible definitions of things, wich is good if you are only doing a quick search to learn the basic stuff from some topic. People who need more complete information to actually learn something, and form their own conclusions, will still visit whatever the source is.
I'd argue that websites died with social media. Now most content is in platforms owned by big corporations, whereas, in the web 1.0, people would have their own websites. No wonder why Google search results are getting worse and worse.
Technically many of the sites ran by individuals are piracy sites now a days. That's why you don't see those results because of censorship. I get the reason for this since they are illegal but it's messed up that we need piracy in order to get certain content.
14:20 AI can already interpret and summarise UA-cam videos with timestamps. Look at the summary AI did for this video "The video discusses the possibility that artificial intelligence (AI) could kill websites, as AI chatbots are designed to rely on links to the source material and provide quick, easy access to information for users. However, in the long run, users may still use websites as standalone sources of information rather than relying on AI chatbots." AI model is powered by ChatGPT
I think a lot of websites will still be around if they have a community. Its the crap ass sites that use click bait articles and filled with adds that will hopefully fade into obscurity.
It’s so true! Been testing the new AI Bing Chat and it’s gotten pretty darn good (accuracy has improved even in the couple weeks I’ve had access). I try chatting with it before doing a normal web link search and only do that or look into the references the chat gives if I’m questioning what Chat tells me. Probably 2/3 of my searches in the past week haven’t involved viewing a single website, other than Bing Chat itself. In fact, it’s been so good and seamless at times that I’ve actually just asked it how to do something instead of looking up a UA-cam video as I normally would, because unless it’s something I need a visual guide of, it’s just faster for Bing Chat to spit out the steps in ten seconds.
No it didn't. I'm a Dev who uses AI often and I waste hours finding functions that AI "make up" exists. The ammount of confidence in hallucinations has increased from GPT3 to GPT-4.
I'd love to have you on my weekly panel podcast show Neuropa to discuss some of this and the future of advert immersion and ambient peripheral interaction.
Interesting! But also remember what was so great about the Vinyl LP was the experience! The immersive and emotional experience to nose dive into this colorful thing you could unfold and it now had doubled in size and there was images and details you could read about and song lyrics you could decipher much better than with sound only. That's what's driving the resurgence of vinyl records to a large extent. Not the fake notion that it sounds good, because it doesn't and it doesn't age well. You can make digital sound analog but you can't make analog sound digital. Sorry! Now ... where were we? Ah, web sites. I think AI bots are great for getting the raw info to users and consumers but the immersive experience is the realm of the websites, right? :D
AI will become very good at creating immersive experiences tailored to the specific user, and making those experiences interactive as well. Imagine if every user's instance of Reddit or Facebook or TikTok was infinitely customizable. You've got the immersion and the interaction. And as you customize your own unique experience, you're training the AI to better predict what experiences and interactions you and other users like you will pay your attention to.
@@Ghost_Text Analog can't do digital, but digital can do analog. If digital came first nobody would have invented analog sound which would have been horrible. Now analaog came first so digital can get the good parts out of it and simulate it to a point were the room you listen in makes more difference than the difference between analog and digital.
Despite knowing how websites work from web design, and knowing how SEO works from learning copywriting/marketing, you described search in a way I had not thought about it before, and have given me a new insight for something I'm making. Website give information to the search engine. I'm trying to make a website simulator in Unity, and was trying to figure out a way so the "search engine" can search through the "websites". With this new insight, I now plan to make each "website" have a file of information to be searched. P.S. I say "website" because many things, including a website, computer file, program, and specific user accounts, are all basically the same thing. I say "search engine" because many things, including the actual search engine, file search, user search, etc, are all basically the same thing. These are in reference to the website simulator.
There are already lawsuits against AI services for breaching license and copyright agreements. Attribution of sources is the next step that all these services are working on. I’m confident that a new model of compensating sources will be worked out, since the learning models will need to be fed masses of original content to stay competitive.
Just curious, but how exactly would we compensate artists, writers and others? These systems were trained on billions and billions of images and billions of books, web sites (probably) and such. No way to know who contributed what. Unless I am missing something. No way to attribute.
@@robertmaxey5406 apparently, Google’s competing system will give sources - they just need to add that info to the model. In terms of compensation I’m sure it is possible; I live in Germany, and for better or worse there is a complicated system called GEMA which compensates artists for streaming, radio plays etc.
@@enricotartarotti I just recently switched back to them after a 19-year abortive relationship with Google. The issue was Google's newfound obsession with using AI to try to dominate and gaslight me. That made anything else not worth it.
Another great video! I am working on a video on a similar topic but from the perspective of data used in marketing. You beautifully touched on that. And your editing, holly molly, is so good. Fascinating to see your growth!
I actually made a new model that uses really the common principles for the model but the model can actually handle data handling and make very more accurate data base on the input
Plus, news travels faster than light. With A.I bots swirling around social media, info can be gathered by any A.I, fresh and uncensored. Take for instance my video, it already KNOWS my script because I uploaded it for revision in Dreamily, an earlier AI similar to chatGPT.
Search engines won’t have any incentive to pay a content creator at all. All the art AI is trained on art posted online right now and they are not paying anyone. Why would they start paying anyone for content at all?
I believe that only the corporate or money-driven websites will decline in number. These are the websites that have no real purpose other than to improve their search engine optimization or attract clicks for ad revenue. However, there will always be people who create websites simply to express themselves and share their ideas. Consider how Reddit operates: the vast majority of its users are not earning money from the site, but they still actively post and engage in discussions because they are passionate about the topics. Ultimately, this will simplify the internet and return it to its original purpose of sharing ideas among people. The corporate and money-driven websites that rely solely on SEO /traditional search algorithms to generate clicks and ad revenue will eventually fade away, which, in my opinion, is a positive development.
The same way SEO has been 'gaming' the search engines, generative AI can be used to 'game' the scraping feeding the AI itself. If LLM are trained on the internet and you wanted to influence their output, you could use generative AI systems to create thousands of instances of an information item, automatically, all over the web.
it is exiting and frightening at the same time, since I'm a software engineer that has been making websites and webapps for the past 15 years. I love the web, and I hope that the next iteration is even better, providing the same vast amount of opportunities for all kind of professionals.
If 5 years ago, someone came up to me and told me that I would be asking the computer to fetch me data, just like how I'd be asking a person, I would have laughed in their face. And now, that's not only already possible, but it's also going to replace search engines.
As soon as a monopoly develops, corruption ensues and everyone suffers. It's the responsibility of governments to make sure that monopolies don't happen and that a competitive market exists that ultimately benefits the consumer.
I'm a tech guy and to be extremely honest I haven't use Reddit ever, but now I'll start to using it, I do also have a keyboard from which I can't find any info
I feel like if this were to happen, the AI would be widely used by people who just want answers quickly (or people who are bad at searching), and the rest of us would stick to the way things are and keep finding information ourselves. It probably would make things like help forums a bit smarter too in the process.
One of those sound effects is like fingers down a chalkboard. Sounds a bit like a slide projector. And all of them are too forwards in the mix. Love the content though literally everything else is mint and this is such an original take ❤
How do I know if AI gives me the correct answers? How would I check sources if there were no websites? And can AI possibly fulfil the human need for relating to the curator through whom I find out about the information, ie the psychological and emotional component of data acquisition? I can't see that happening. Just typing into some kind of screen and having data regurgitated at me would feel a bit like riding in an early London underground train: they thought passengers wouldn't need any windows because "there's nothing to look at" in a tunnel, and the same thing happened when a group of students (I forget what uni or engineering school it might have been) who built a prototype car of the future that would run within a controlled system to deliver riders where they want to go, again without windows - because riders would use the commuting time for work or entertainment purposes and would therefore also not have a need to look out any windows. And that goes totally against the utterly basic need of human beings to feel in control. I don't think AI will lead to the demise of websites. We need the pedegree or even the human voices of those who bring us the data.
@@hbsharkman And to make it even worse, we can't take tell exactly what kind of stuff (likely garbage, what what kind of garbage?) it's been fed. Makes me feel like wanting to stay away from it as far as I can.
It will provide sources. And you're exaggerating the supposed "human need" for relating to "the curator". When you do Google searches, how often do you feel your "human need" of relating to "the curator" being fulfilled? Doing google searches is already like trying to communicate with a robot and getting the information out of it that you need; not much "humanness" about it.
Saw your what happened to google search video, and now this one. You sir got a subscriber. Great content, well thought through and enjoyable. Keep up the good work, and i will be looking forward to part 2 of the google video :)
14:18, if ai chat bots make an article for a video we are moving backwards. Ai should be generating a scompressed summary in an interactive video not article. You're mostly right about most of what you say. But what will kill google will be ai but in the form of an actual live ai assistant eventually not by us having to read articles about articles. What is easiierr is always what succeeds
Consider the possiblity that the search engines start using UA-cam as their basis for answering user questions. And that the search engine/chatgpt engine creates videos to answer the questions, not text. And that the user could click on the video using, maybe, Alt-D for more details on a specific part of a video, or Alt-W to go to the best website/reference for that part of the video. I'm not seeing a text-based future. I think we have the computing power these days to do video, and Google / Microsoft have the ability to go beyond that, creating interactive videos for us as answers. You even talk about this in your videos What Happened To Google Search, and AI Videos Are Scary, but you don't take it far enough to hook it into the search engines.
A lot of people barely sometimes know how to communicate without turning the conversation into a trainwreck. They ignore psychology (the study of themselves, brains). They have no respect for their surroundings. They think informing themselves about things is pointless. Humans are almost always stupid, often very stupid. I highly doubt that AIs will either progress a lot, or function correctly, or not devour half the internet, because the people who develop them have a very slim chance of understanding language and knowledge (and money I guess, the third wheel, in a healthy way) perfectly enough to make their AI function correctly and not destroy the balance of the internet (it's not completely balanced, but still). I think the probably best case scenario is that, AIs are integrated in a big way, and shape how the internet works, but they are not fair. Maybe they think certain types of information are better than others so certain types of sites get arbitrarily less monetized. Maybe some information is left out because the AI can't figure out how to process it's information, etc.
...Is it weird that I kinda wish category-style discovery was still a thing? It couldn't possibly work, you'd need someone sitting there determining whether or not every single website actually belonged in the category it was submitted to. But I think it was great for discovering much smaller websites vs. shitty search engine SEO.
Could you add a progress bar to your sponsored segments, like some other UA-cams do? For one, it is a good indicator to differentiate your content/opinion from the sponsor and secondly, it reduces skipping, as you can see, that it is only a short time until it is finished compared to the possible hassle of finding the right spot after the add, when skipping (but helps finding the point, if if you really want to). Thirdly, I would not put the sponsor segments so close to the beginning of the video. People will decide during these segments, if it’s worth to watch the sponsor and therefore the video and if the value preposition at this point isn’t great enough, they might watch something else. Later segments reduce the risk, as people already invest time and want to see the conclusion. I’m not sure if you see that in the analytics but it’s at least how I react. Of course the best case scenario are chapter marks with the sponsor read at the end of one segment or as an individual chapter like other channels do.
If A.I.s just take things from websites, I bet it’s only a matter of time until somebody figures out how to teach the A.I. something wrong, and possibly put it at the front of what the A.I. knows. xD
Very insightful video! I was a bit skeptical that it would be interesting when I first clicked it, but I'm so glad I stuck with this video because it's one of the most interesting and engaging that I've seen in a while. You've got a new subscriber!
How about website where SEO doesn't matter, or websites that are not designed to sell or solve anything, such as my personal/hobby blog where I simply share my photos with the world? Although your video is correct, it is focused too much in commercial web, leaving behind non-commercial and non-corporate content.
A.I is unique as an invention. It's not like other tools that requires humans. It's self learning, which ironically helped on my upload that talks about preparing for an A.I takeover.
People will still need physical products and AI will need a source of up to date information to train from. Website interaction may change but they will not die.
We need to be very careful right now. SEO ruined the internet we had and AI chatbots, if billionaires get sole control of them, will do the same. We need to create a fully open source natural language model right now
Google would never let its revenue streams dry up. It will undoubtedly, motivated by profit of course, find a way to make these new AI's work for all of Alphabet's divisions.
The second option would be best. Two coexisting search engines. Maybe the whole monetizaton and SEO garbage will go with the chatbot leaving the "old web" with value not hiding under piles of trash like it is now.
But that's mostly how it's been the last few years. Google Maps, and Maybe also Facebook are the First place for Businesses to Put their info and Keep it up to date.
Ads and the SEO system have all but already destroyed the internet surfing experience for a long time now. I stopped using general/misc websites for information a long time ago. If I need an answer I use Wikipedia, UA-cam, or Reddit, because the information (in theory) is provided by real people with real experience (at least for now).

stop talking so slow just make your video longer if you want it longer
The answer to the question "why would anyone create a website if the AI can give all the answers" is one you gave yourself in the beginning of the video: Because they are passionate about the subject their website is all about. My hope is that if we see the death of websites and search engines, the internet will start becoming more like it was back in the day, full of passion project websites made by users instead of corporations, for the purpose of sharing their passion instead of just making profit.
AI will never replace forums. Our hobbies are so obscure, with questions literally 1 in a million humans ask

Problem witch ChatGPT is that is "only" text generation AI. If it don't know answer, it "hallucinate" the answer(s); basically lies. AI hallucynation is actually one of the biggest problem in the ML industry
Agree, it's the biggest problem to overcome. However, given the speed at which AI is moving i don't think it will take long. In a podcast (HIBT), Sam Altman acknowledged this as the biggest problem, but thst they have some ideas on how to solve it. Very curious to see! For now i use ChatGPT / bing only as a helper and double checking myself. Still massively useful
@@enricotartarotti Ohhh wow didnt know that. Thanks for sharing. Although do you know of any possible ways they can solve this problem? At max what I thought was they could give some sort of confidence score showing how sure they are that their answer is correct
Good point
@@enricotartarotti it’s not really a problem if you know how to ask the right questions in the right way. I’ve been using it every day for months and only get wrong answers if I make a mistake, it’s like blaming your car for a crash when you don’t know how to use the steering wheel. All tools and machines need skill to operate, this is no exception. The issue is people don’t realise how poor their language and logic skills are. The power that AI has is 1000000 times the level of skill needed to operate it, but most people are too lazy to admit their own deficiencies or when they’re in the wrong or to improve their language and logic capabilities
i mean with your grammar it would make sense it gets confused on what you say lol
Websites have been dead for years. There's barely been any money in that business. Most internet companies have been focusing on a SaaS model for years.
To build a website you need to bring traffic to it and that has been notoriously difficult since most of the user's attentions are monopolized by a few tech giants
SaaS sucks. people need to get back to localized computing, no more of these online, web based apps! Say NO to centralized control!!!
Thats true, SEO has been irrelevant for years. It has had many problems from privitation to constant algorithm modifications just based on location itself. Only ones that I hear ask me if I know SEO, is Ecomerce places that where it really makes no difference, because the ones that sells courses and all that says the sales is done threw social marketing.
Agreed. However One shall return from that which he came from... Lol
Bcuz of the monopolies, websites are low key still relevant, if not are slowly making a comeback. i. e. Censorship, as well as overall control/management of said material
Hahahahahahahahaahahah
Trust me this is all so stupid. Websites used to have virtually 0 cost to maintain. All you needed to do for a domain was write a letter asking for one.
This isnt anything new though. The internet will always bottleneck into a few major corps.
Edit: TLDR; AI will kill search, not websites.
AI will not eliminate websites. Websites will always be there for companies, portfolios, personal blogs, applications, etc. These are basically all the same reasons that websites are relevant now. Most people know that searching for specific answers, is cumbersome at best. For years now, most people visit websites for other reasons.
I don't look at any of those websites except to search. I'm on UA-cam almost exclusively.
If AI will search for me then these sites don't ever get my click through unless I want to check the source.
@@justinwhite2725 you don't read personal blog posts, use your favorite web apps, look at pictures of things you're interested in, buy things online, etc etc?
I don't like having answers spoon fed to me. So I will continue using traditional search.
I'm usually on websites to shop. And I have a florist shop online. New customers find me all the time. Not sure how this video relates to that
BOOOM! You saved me an entire response that I was just going to write!
SEO killed the internet. You just find links to shops if you google anything. I startet using Bing like two weeks ago and I noticed I am up to 60 times more effensive at searching the Web than before. I am searching for subjects I didn’t before because it became viable it’s worth the hustle now. But I mostly end up visiting websites in the end that Bing AI directs me too.
What if it doesn't know something? For example, you could be part of some niche community that's only known to maybe like, 1,000 or so people, and the AI could straight up lie to you about one thing about said community.
@@CoasterMan13Official since your typical AI pulls data from the web, how can you trust it? I will occasionally ask an AI about something I have extensive experience with and a great deal of knowledge about and the AI is never accurate. It repeats things said by others that are flat out WRONG.
It is like Wikipedia without the HTML.
Tip of the day: Use specialized search engines. When I need accurate data, I often use a specialized search engine because they index a very narrow set of web sites. Google/Bing are OK, but they are not always as useful as other search engines.
Bing is not Google so one can expect different results. I have found better results using Bing in some cases and in other cases, Google is better. I also hit the stacks and read actual books.
I find that google is better than duckduckgo(bing) for finding memes and popular references, but i dont know if i notice a difference searching for tech tutorials
Oh wow that's cool
12:45 "Finally the time where we [...] go all in to platforms"
Yeah, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with destroying the open nature of the internet. With centralizing all control to one or a few entities. With AI that can easily filter what you’re supposed to know and what you’re not allowed to. What could possibly go wrong?
I don't think centralization is a problem. People go where they see value, regardless of centralized/decentralized. What I hope is not to have more random decentralized websites everywhere but more choice on platforms. Now if I want to upload video for example there's just UA-cam, would love to see more alternatives. I still think platforms are the way to go, there's just too few now
@@enricotartarotti Still, this is very problematic in many aspects, including privacy. Too easy to be cancelled. I prefer hosting my own because then I can say whatever I want.
@@Sasha-zw9ss This is my main issue with platforms. They make the rules (always updating), they control your content, their algo controls your exposure and in many cases that directly impacts income. Just look at the state of youtube and how excessive AI-moderation/rules/false-copyright have gotten. People roll their eyes when you bring up censorship and preservation, but if we're talking about internet content _in general_ being at the mercy of social management and retroactive 'living' guidelines... that's going to be kind of an issue.
@@enricotartarotti oh yes, monopolisation famously has no issues.
I was going to write the exact same thing. The level plain field of the Internet must not be a few plataforms controlled by a few tech giants. That would be horrific for everyone involved.
Whatever happens to the Internet the ability of just doing your own thing on your own corner must be kept by all means.
I think the future of websites will be the beginning of the website.
I don’t want an AI to tell me what mountain bike trails to ride in Bressanone, I want a local to give me advice on mountain bike trails in Bressanone, in German, Italian, English and French.
A.i. will tell you what the locals think
@@АЛЕКСАНДРФИЛИПС-м6р still not interesting for me. hearing someone speak his mind has no equivalent.
@@АЛЕКСАНДРФИЛИПС-м6р AI can tell you the news but people like to hear it from their “trusted source”
Information is information, if A.I. could give reliable and trustworthy information about bike trails or whatever, I doubt most people would care that it doesn't come from real people. The problem is that current A.I. gives a lot of misinformed takes with confidence.
@@LeoVital I mean this is just wrong. we all know that communication is not ony about information. Non verbal cues are also very important. word of mouth will still be king.
This really seems like it would only kill websites that don't provide any kind of service and just provide information, though. For instance, if I want to engage with people on any kind of forum community, I would still have to go there and ask questions. If I want to submit a job application, I would still have to go to that website and submit it using their process. In fact, when I ask ChatGPT questions about how I can apply for a job at a particular company or how I can find out more about a very specific project, it will usually just give me a link to the website. If I actually want to perform a particular task, like get a job, contribute to a project, engage with a community, or use a service, that kind of thing still results in a website link. There are limits to what being given a few paragraphs describing something can accomplish.
An issue I uncovered with Bing chat is that it doesn't actually conduct live searches of sites but instead uses a cached version of a site. Depending on the site the cached version can be days or months old. So this lag will affect different websites non uniformly and hence always provide variations in "up to date" responses.
Interesting, just got access to the mobile version of new bing and will test it out. Got any example queries where you saw this?
are you sure about that? because in the WAN show from LMG that i watched, they asked it about a product that they released literally minutes before and it found it
All search engines use cached websites
Did you ever try to use google to find the most recent information about a topic? Especially when it's more niche more often that not it barely works properly. Sure, it gives you results, but said results are often pretty useless.
@@enricotartarotti I asked for the email addresses of the city council members of Albany Oregon. It gave me people that were no longer on the council. I asked for the source of the list and it gave me the correct website which also showed the people recently elected. So I asked it what date it retrieved the information from. It said today and after some arguing I asked it what date of information the website was using. It gave me a date of two months ago, before the latest elected people took office. Which then made sense why it was giving me outdated information. I then asked it for what date the cached version it was using for a few other sites and the most popular trafficked sites were up to date. So my conclusion is that it is using website data based on when Bing updates it cached version of a site. The least popular trafficked sites get updated less frequently.
UPDATE. I just checked asked It the same question about my city council members and it is still incorrect even though it is giving me the correct website as a source. Ask it what date of the website it is giving for its sources and you might see the variations.
The concept of feeding content directly into an AI database on the chance that you might get compensated if it gets used really reminds me of Snow crash.
There were these characters just going around with wearables, collecting data for the central CIA database.
I could see people literally going around and collecting all kinds of spoken and written text
I think it's gonna greatly raise the bar for content marketing. Garbage SEO optimization blogs and sites will fall away (thank god). ChatGPT creates the base article, then personal/expertise layered on top.
So, all of these options sound like silent dystopia. Either it's a monopoly or an oligarchy, these options all lead to a consolidation of thought and control. Goodbye, free web.
Agree
One of the things I like about search is finding random stuff that doesn't relate to what I searched for.
That doesn't explain why the UA-cam search has got so bad. In my opinion it could be two things 1) protection of information from China/Russia via limitation for political protection/gain. 2) protection of information from China to prevent videos from being cloned to TikTok. 3) A change in the way the algorithm works from a holistic approach to ML/Decision tree.
On point 1/2, then I wish they only apply these filters to countries requesting these filters. I'm fine with UA-cam having filters for China rather than having the whole website banned, but this should not affect any other country.
But websites won’t die. UA-cam is on the web, your sponsor brilliant is on the web, learning resources are on the web, etc - Chatbots can’t replace these. The web is more than garbage articles optimized for SEO. If this chatbot stuff can actually be made accurate, I can only see it killing those small websites that are purely designed for ad revenue.
My answer to this is: structured knowledge databases. I think there should public databases that holds factual knowledge in a strucured way that AIs can reliably access these. They contain facts like historical data, weather data, science, news etc. where everyone can agree on and are maintained by states or ngos. Everything that goes beyong this is "entertainment" and can be commercialized and is left for private content creators. The big upside with structured knowledge is, that an AI working on these information wouldn't make any mistakes anymore.
I'll take, what is an encyclopedia for $10
Interesting take. Do you think there will still be the risk of having "echo chambers" if we rely on platforms? I don't think everyone will be willing to dive deeper and be impartial with their research if this were to happen.
I personally would suspect the same thing, judging by how people are so lazy to research deeper, there's a chance people would not double check information and just take what AI would feed them. That's the scariest thing. Human complacency.
I have the same fear. People already believe everything they see on Instagram and Facebook, including the so called tech savvy younger generation, so while ChatGPT is really cool, I fear it will lead to even more misinformation and propaganda.
I think it's probably easier for the AI to be an "echochamber" in itself because of the creators bias or by creators blacklisting info as opposed to websites with user generated content.
Bit Orwellian but certainly possible
@@TheAlpacalypseIsUponUs It's already happening for years, so rather than possible, it is certain.
Having someone that's creating such in-depth analyses about AI and the dawn of these chat bots is a game changer!
Thanks so much for putting so much effort in 🤩

We're not in 2004. "Websites" aren't just made up of a bunch of articles about a given subject. There are social networks, there's wikipedia, there are google results with a lot of information. What had to die, died a long time ago. Nowadays, most popular websites provide services and that has nothing to do with ChatGPT and the impact it may have. ChatGPT will impact search engines and wikipedia and that's it for now. Even news outlets are safe from chatGPT for now, considering that chatGPT can't provide new information in real time.
News outlets are their own worst enemy though. They have ditched facts for state propaganda.
When I try to search a topic, I can tell a lot of the results were not written by a human. The pages are one after the other of wrong information copied from eachother or the same bad source and reworded.
THANK YOU! I'm a florist with an online shop, so this video had me wondering what on earth that can be replaced with.
6:28 "Why would you want to visit an ad-ridden website to get some generic SEO optimized blog post?" Yes, I very much hope chatbots undercut those awful high noise/low info websites, leaving behind information heavy websites that exist because their creator has a topic they are passionate about (e.g. mine 😅). Before search engines were ubiquitous, there were still directories and mutual links between websites and even those webrings. So, I'm really not concerned about the continued connectivity and content of the Internet.
The majority of online content being platform-hosted under moderation that can arbitrarily suspend or terminate your account for drama on 3rd party sites, offensive content, politics, or algorithm goofs - is not exactly something I look forward to. There will always be websites and independent domains to pick up the slack but we've seen the dumpster fires on current platforms already and I don't think it'll go very well.
My thoughts exactly! Independent is the way to go...tired of these platforms myself.
The idea of going from SEO to AIFO is simply genius.
I wonder what new ways will appear to game the system. ChatGPT and the inteliigent chatbots are changing the rules of the game.
AI is already biased.... With AIFO it will be even worse than the SEO - based search is now. I wonder if it doesn't mean it can never make much of a difference in terms of search use.
I don't think current search methods will *completely* dissappear just yet, as for academic research you do need to explore the full sources, but I can see that being tackled right after common users switch to ai search
AI chatbots don't allow me to browse information. I can ask for specifics, but if I don't know what exactly I want and wish to browse through options, I need an old-school website. Same for galleries of products or art. For example, I've been looking for cool Warhammer miniatures recently, scrolling through available miniatures and looking at the pictures to decide which I want to buy. An AI can't help me with that.

One factor that might affect the "website to platform" path are the various bills out there rn that could potentially put platforms on the hook for the content its users post. The collision of these two possibilities could be disastrous for free speech.
Great video..
However, websites are not purely information via blogs... They're also business pages themselves; direct contact and access to companies and brands.
Search engines serve as a directory the way yellow pages use to be made; *(I think that's kinda what was being hinted at towards the end of the video; one will still have go into individual websites to search specific details regarding brand/s & companies).
That LTT WAN Show episode you referenced/exampled at 5:05 was a good insert to your video. It was awesome to watch Linus' and Luke's initial reactions to Bing Search w/chatGPT throughout their whole segment of their show when they streamed it a couple or so weeks ago.
That's not the only thing AI is going to kill...
One thing that worries me about AI is that it may further complicate issues with false information. For example right now I can often quickly pick up when a website is spreading misinformation on something like climate change based on context clues around language/lay out/web address etc. If people switch to relying primarily off AI, those context clues would be gone so even people experienced in picking out mis info will struggle and the average joe will be completely out of their depth.
climate change is fake itself.)) Global freezing is coming!
Great video!
I am somewhat skeptical of what Microsoft CEO is saying. Whenever an industry is being disrupted, the companies disrupting it will tend to frame it as an improvement rather than that thing being totally burned down. They usually claim that the status quo will remain unchanged, and that their new invention will only increase productivity. This is because they do not want the bad publicity. But the thing is, ideally... search engines would prefer to not need partners. They want their users to stay on their site, collect their data, and not send them to other links. Therefore, their incentives are ultimately aligned to make their search engine better and better to the point where the user won't need to leave their site.
Which leads to my next point, which I think it would have been worth addressing and that is: the AIs starting to generate the primordial content themselves by scanning social media interactions, science papers, surveillance cameras and yadda yadda.. and just writing the news and articles by watching humans doing things.
Yeah, it might be sound far-fetched right now, but things are evolving so goddammit fast.
My interest in AI Chat Bots died as quickly as it started after I realized that it mostly just gives very generic and as non-contoversial as possible definitions of things, wich is good if you are only doing a quick search to learn the basic stuff from some topic. People who need more complete information to actually learn something, and form their own conclusions, will still visit whatever the source is.
I'd argue that websites died with social media.
Now most content is in platforms owned by big corporations, whereas, in the web 1.0, people would have their own websites.
No wonder why Google search results are getting worse and worse.
Technically many of the sites ran by individuals are piracy sites now a days. That's why you don't see those results because of censorship. I get the reason for this since they are illegal but it's messed up that we need piracy in order to get certain content.
14:20 AI can already interpret and summarise UA-cam videos with timestamps. Look at the summary AI did for this video
"The video discusses the possibility that artificial intelligence (AI) could kill websites, as AI chatbots are designed to rely on links to the source material and provide quick, easy access to information for users. However, in the long run, users may still use websites as standalone sources of information rather than relying on AI chatbots."
AI model is powered by ChatGPT
I think a lot of websites will still be around if they have a community. Its the crap ass sites that use click bait articles and filled with adds that will hopefully fade into obscurity.
This is why we need to have a public database that let's us review websites. Its crazy that we have no system in place
It’s so true! Been testing the new AI Bing Chat and it’s gotten pretty darn good (accuracy has improved even in the couple weeks I’ve had access). I try chatting with it before doing a normal web link search and only do that or look into the references the chat gives if I’m questioning what Chat tells me.
Probably 2/3 of my searches in the past week haven’t involved viewing a single website, other than Bing Chat itself. In fact, it’s been so good and seamless at times that I’ve actually just asked it how to do something instead of looking up a UA-cam video as I normally would, because unless it’s something I need a visual guide of, it’s just faster for Bing Chat to spit out the steps in ten seconds.
You've helped me articulate my thoughts and begin thinking about wider questions and possibilities. Fantastic content.

I'd love to have you on my weekly panel podcast show Neuropa to discuss some of this and the future of advert immersion and ambient peripheral interaction.
Interesting! But also remember what was so great about the Vinyl LP was the experience! The immersive and emotional experience to nose dive into this colorful thing you could unfold and it now had doubled in size and there was images and details you could read about and song lyrics you could decipher much better than with sound only. That's what's driving the resurgence of vinyl records to a large extent. Not the fake notion that it sounds good, because it doesn't and it doesn't age well. You can make digital sound analog but you can't make analog sound digital. Sorry! Now ... where were we? Ah, web sites. I think AI bots are great for getting the raw info to users and consumers but the immersive experience is the realm of the websites, right? :D
AI will become very good at creating immersive experiences tailored to the specific user, and making those experiences interactive as well. Imagine if every user's instance of Reddit or Facebook or TikTok was infinitely customizable. You've got the immersion and the interaction. And as you customize your own unique experience, you're training the AI to better predict what experiences and interactions you and other users like you will pay your attention to.
Analog warmth preserved in vinyl iirc was what made people (mainly audiophiles value vinyl and dub recordings over CD and digital.
@@Ghost_Text Analog can't do digital, but digital can do analog. If digital came first nobody would have invented analog sound which would have been horrible. Now analaog came first so digital can get the good parts out of it and simulate it to a point were the room you listen in makes more difference than the difference between analog and digital.
Despite knowing how websites work from web design, and knowing how SEO works from learning copywriting/marketing, you described search in a way I had not thought about it before, and have given me a new insight for something I'm making.
Website give information to the search engine.
I'm trying to make a website simulator in Unity, and was trying to figure out a way so the "search engine" can search through the "websites". With this new insight, I now plan to make each "website" have a file of information to be searched.
P.S. I say "website" because many things, including a website, computer file, program, and specific user accounts, are all basically the same thing. I say "search engine" because many things, including the actual search engine, file search, user search, etc, are all basically the same thing. These are in reference to the website simulator.
There are already lawsuits against AI services for breaching license and copyright agreements. Attribution of sources is the next step that all these services are working on. I’m confident that a new model of compensating sources will be worked out, since the learning models will need to be fed masses of original content to stay competitive.
Just curious, but how exactly would we compensate artists, writers and others? These systems were trained on billions and billions of images and billions of books, web sites (probably) and such. No way to know who contributed what. Unless I am missing something. No way to attribute.
@@robertmaxey5406 apparently, Google’s competing system will give sources - they just need to add that info to the model. In terms of compensation I’m sure it is possible; I live in Germany, and for better or worse there is a complicated system called GEMA which compensates artists for streaming, radio plays etc.
Back in days i searched sometimes for so long, i ended reading wikipedia articles but now its so easy!

@@enricotartarotti I just recently switched back to them after a 19-year abortive relationship with Google. The issue was Google's newfound obsession with using AI to try to dominate and gaslight me. That made anything else not worth it.
Another great video! I am working on a video on a similar topic but from the perspective of data used in marketing. You beautifully touched on that. And your editing, holly molly, is so good. Fascinating to see your growth!
Going back to the old web would be fine
I actually made a new model that uses really the common principles for the model but the model can actually handle data handling and make very more accurate data base on the input
Plus, news travels faster than light.
With A.I bots swirling around social media, info can be gathered by any A.I, fresh and uncensored.
Take for instance my video, it already KNOWS my script because I uploaded it for revision in Dreamily, an earlier AI similar to chatGPT.
So in effect, it already knew my video content faster than I uploaded it.
Search engines won’t have any incentive to pay a content creator at all. All the art AI is trained on art posted online right now and they are not paying anyone. Why would they start paying anyone for content at all?
I believe that only the corporate or money-driven websites will decline in number. These are the websites that have no real purpose other than to improve their search engine optimization or attract clicks for ad revenue. However, there will always be people who create websites simply to express themselves and share their ideas. Consider how Reddit operates: the vast majority of its users are not earning money from the site, but they still actively post and engage in discussions because they are passionate about the topics. Ultimately, this will simplify the internet and return it to its original purpose of sharing ideas among people. The corporate and money-driven websites that rely solely on SEO /traditional search algorithms to generate clicks and ad revenue will eventually fade away, which, in my opinion, is a positive development.
The same way SEO has been 'gaming' the search engines, generative AI can be used to 'game' the scraping feeding the AI itself. If LLM are trained on the internet and you wanted to influence their output, you could use generative AI systems to create thousands of instances of an information item, automatically, all over the web.
it is exiting and frightening at the same time, since I'm a software engineer that has been making websites and webapps for the past 15 years. I love the web, and I hope that the next iteration is even better, providing the same vast amount of opportunities for all kind of professionals.
I think it's more likely that websites will evolve into something a bit different. No idea what but I think they are fundamental.
If 5 years ago, someone came up to me and told me that I would be asking the computer to fetch me data, just like how I'd be asking a person, I would have laughed in their face. And now, that's not only already possible, but it's also going to replace search engines.
As soon as a monopoly develops, corruption ensues and everyone suffers. It's the responsibility of governments to make sure that monopolies don't happen and that a competitive market exists that ultimately benefits the consumer.
I'm a tech guy and to be extremely honest I haven't use Reddit ever, but now I'll start to using it, I do also have a keyboard from which I can't find any info
I feel like if this were to happen, the AI would be widely used by people who just want answers quickly (or people who are bad at searching), and the rest of us would stick to the way things are and keep finding information ourselves. It probably would make things like help forums a bit smarter too in the process.
One of those sound effects is like fingers down a chalkboard. Sounds a bit like a slide projector. And all of them are too forwards in the mix.
Love the content though literally everything else is mint and this is such an original take ❤
Watched like 6 of your videos in a row, and now David shows up in one! :o Damn man, yo’ute killin it
How do I know if AI gives me the correct answers? How would I check sources if there were no websites?
And can AI possibly fulfil the human need for relating to the curator through whom I find out about the information, ie the psychological and emotional component of data acquisition?
I can't see that happening. Just typing into some kind of screen and having data regurgitated at me would feel a bit like riding in an early London underground train: they thought passengers wouldn't need any windows because "there's nothing to look at" in a tunnel, and the same thing happened when a group of students (I forget what uni or engineering school it might have been) who built a prototype car of the future that would run within a controlled system to deliver riders where they want to go, again without windows - because riders would use the commuting time for work or entertainment purposes and would therefore also not have a need to look out any windows. And that goes totally against the utterly basic need of human beings to feel in control. I don't think AI will lead to the demise of websites. We need the pedegree or even the human voices of those who bring us the data.
Garbage in garbage out it only recognizes what it is present it in its corpus. Which could be false.
@@hbsharkman And to make it even worse, we can't take tell exactly what kind of stuff (likely garbage, what what kind of garbage?) it's been fed. Makes me feel like wanting to stay away from it as far as I can.
It will provide sources. And you're exaggerating the supposed "human need" for relating to "the curator". When you do Google searches, how often do you feel your "human need" of relating to "the curator" being fulfilled? Doing google searches is already like trying to communicate with a robot and getting the information out of it that you need; not much "humanness" about it.
Google killed websites a few years ago, with their display of summarised data on the browser.
Saw your what happened to google search video, and now this one. You sir got a subscriber. Great content, well thought through and enjoyable. Keep up the good work, and i will be looking forward to part 2 of the google video :)
14:18, if ai chat bots make an article for a video we are moving backwards. Ai should be generating a scompressed summary in an interactive video not article. You're mostly right about most of what you say. But what will kill google will be ai but in the form of an actual live ai assistant eventually not by us having to read articles about articles. What is easiierr is always what succeeds
First company that makes a ChatGPT without the ethical l guidelines is gonna blow up.
Consider the possiblity that the search engines start using UA-cam as their basis for answering user questions. And that the search engine/chatgpt engine creates videos to answer the questions, not text. And that the user could click on the video using, maybe, Alt-D for more details on a specific part of a video, or Alt-W to go to the best website/reference for that part of the video. I'm not seeing a text-based future. I think we have the computing power these days to do video, and Google / Microsoft have the ability to go beyond that, creating interactive videos for us as answers. You even talk about this in your videos What Happened To Google Search, and AI Videos Are Scary, but you don't take it far enough to hook it into the search engines.
A lot of people barely sometimes know how to communicate without turning the conversation into a trainwreck. They ignore psychology (the study of themselves, brains). They have no respect for their surroundings. They think informing themselves about things is pointless.
Humans are almost always stupid, often very stupid. I highly doubt that AIs will either progress a lot, or function correctly, or not devour half the internet, because the people who develop them have a very slim chance of understanding language and knowledge (and money I guess, the third wheel, in a healthy way) perfectly enough to make their AI function correctly and not destroy the balance of the internet (it's not completely balanced, but still).
I think the probably best case scenario is that, AIs are integrated in a big way, and shape how the internet works, but they are not fair. Maybe they think certain types of information are better than others so certain types of sites get arbitrarily less monetized. Maybe some information is left out because the AI can't figure out how to process it's information, etc.
Very well thought out and explained ~. Good one. Well done thank you,
...Is it weird that I kinda wish category-style discovery was still a thing? It couldn't possibly work, you'd need someone sitting there determining whether or not every single website actually belonged in the category it was submitted to. But I think it was great for discovering much smaller websites vs. shitty search engine SEO.
Could you add a progress bar to your sponsored segments, like some other UA-cams do? For one, it is a good indicator to differentiate your content/opinion from the sponsor and secondly, it reduces skipping, as you can see, that it is only a short time until it is finished compared to the possible hassle of finding the right spot after the add, when skipping (but helps finding the point, if if you really want to). Thirdly, I would not put the sponsor segments so close to the beginning of the video. People will decide during these segments, if it’s worth to watch the sponsor and therefore the video and if the value preposition at this point isn’t great enough, they might watch something else. Later segments reduce the risk, as people already invest time and want to see the conclusion. I’m not sure if you see that in the analytics but it’s at least how I react.
Of course the best case scenario are chapter marks with the sponsor read at the end of one segment or as an individual chapter like other channels do.
The website won't die bro.. website is already there before SEO.
I think the internet in general would benefit from SEO becoming less relevant. Not a guarantee, but here’s hoping it happens.
The answer on Bing AI are strongly influenced by ads
If A.I.s just take things from websites, I bet it’s only a matter of time until somebody figures out how to teach the A.I. something wrong, and possibly put it at the front of what the A.I. knows. xD
Very insightful video! I was a bit skeptical that it would be interesting when I first clicked it, but I'm so glad I stuck with this video because it's one of the most interesting and engaging that I've seen in a while.
You've got a new subscriber!
How about website where SEO doesn't matter, or websites that are not designed to sell or solve anything, such as my personal/hobby blog where I simply share my photos with the world?
Although your video is correct, it is focused too much in commercial web, leaving behind non-commercial and non-corporate content.
Y los sitios de noticias que lo hagan por el amor al arte?
11:15 bro México City is not in Spain
Yeah I realized later in the keynote it was mexico.. too lazy to re-shoot that part lol
@@enricotartarotti either way, great video as always
The scrolling! I hate it! We need pages back
A.I is unique as an invention. It's not like other tools that requires humans.
It's self learning, which ironically helped on my upload that talks about preparing for an A.I takeover.
an because of self-learning, it is entirely unpredictable what is going to happen in the future, not even if you are in authority/power.
People will still need physical products and AI will need a source of up to date information to train from. Website interaction may change but they will not die.
So happy you mentioned neeva
We need to be very careful right now. SEO ruined the internet we had and AI chatbots, if billionaires get sole control of them, will do the same. We need to create a fully open source natural language model right now
We have; search for GPT-J for one example.
I developed the Rodney Web; a mix of mychoryzal and cybernetic networks of unparalleled power.
I'm really loving all of this intelligent content you provide.
Google would never let its revenue streams dry up. It will undoubtedly, motivated by profit of course, find a way to make these new AI's work for all of Alphabet's divisions.
AI is going to change the tech industry and great video man :]
The second option would be best. Two coexisting search engines. Maybe the whole monetizaton and SEO garbage will go with the chatbot leaving the "old web" with value not hiding under piles of trash like it is now.
But that's mostly how it's been the last few years.
Google Maps, and Maybe also Facebook are the First place for Businesses to Put their info and Keep it up to date.
I don't need an ai to tell me the wrong information when I can find the right info in just a few clicks.
Answer: No.
So don't freak out.
Ads and the SEO system have all but already destroyed the internet surfing experience for a long time now. I stopped using general/misc websites for information a long time ago. If I need an answer I use Wikipedia, UA-cam, or Reddit, because the information (in theory) is provided by real people with real experience (at least for now).
The AI chatbot will need to be able to bring up images for an experience which can rival that of a purpose written web page.
