It’s “freemium”, not free. There is a difference. You can’t use ChatGPT 4 without paying as well as the API. Also, you are limited in the number of prompts you can make per hour before you are put on pause and asked to pay.
Search engines like Ecosia, DuckDuckGo, etc. don’t ask you for money. Regardless how intensively you use it. (They might come with other drawbacks though like Google with privacy, environment, ethical principles, …)

What does Google’s cloud service have to do with what we’re discussing (Google indexing content vs. SO doing it)? They’re not even similar services.

I’ve never been asked to pay for using one of the aforementioned search engines. I have been asked to pay for OpenAI products.
So I don’t see how you come to that conclusion.
