Microsoft , Apple and Google not necessarily in the specific order but have never failed to amaze us in our life time more than once.
Well we have seen a lot of history from Disk keeping data in MB's and size of Huge Cabinets to keeping data in Cloud and from from typing in huge mechanical keyboards to typing on glass. We have come thus far and trust me the journey is gonna be much more interesting than we can image.
Well we all had our fun time with how everything has evolved and remember the days when we used to make fun on windows way back after say Windows 98 where everything crashed and felt really buggy and then most of us (me included) made comments like this is what happens when you copy the code from some one.
Well, Microsoft slapped everyone back with Windows 7 and everyone mark my words everyone was delighted to work on Windows 7. Now what did MS do that hit us all on the face and why was the OS so amazing. Along with the hard work that MS did we need to understand we smoothly had transitioned from 32bit to 64bit in the background.
Now let's address the Elephant in the Room shall we.
Who is leading the search since inception(let's just say we all started to google). Google was not the first search engine it was not a new idea but the idea was to get relevant results according to your query. And over last 3 decades the quality of the queries have changed. People ask more specific questions and that cannot be a single page or website result. Now everyone knew this but no one was working on it.
I mean when was the last time you were doing something and you found all your results in the same page. I have to go back and forth on a lot of content to get some information be it code or history or farming. Now Microsoft spilled the Beans at the right time when people started getting taste of ChatGPT for drawing and writing code and creating websites and some trying to instil a word of fear that people in IT will loose jobs MS built the new search with AI assisted chat.
And that's not even the beginning to what they did they integrated it with everything possible and with just one finishing touch MS did it again what they did more than a decade ago and Status Quo is back to MS and for the first time in history for search.
I am not sure that is gonna short lived or gonna introduce a new jargon 'Bing it' but Google for sure does not have the answer to it yet. And please do not get started on Bard powered by Lambda and this is gonna be a huge news for really long.
Well, whatever it was we are gonna get dumber in remembering and reading things as we know the information is a step away but our answers and approach to a problem are gonna get really interesting.
And we may for first time in history of search start paying for search. Yea you got that right ChatGPT is charging $20 for monthly so I think the new trend has already been set and with the ind of results provided it will not be possible to stay away from it.
Thanks,
