Apple Inc. is “actively looking at” revamping the Safari web browser on its devices to focus on AI-powered search engines, a seismic shift for the industry hastened by the potential end of a longtime partnership with Google.
Apple: “Siri, search for a big dumb basket for me to put all my eggs into.”
Siri: “Now playing Basket Case by Green Day…”
Hopefully that just means using AI to find and index existing content, not to fabricate its own results.
pls burst already ai bubble and take all tech companies that chased it with you
The simple fact that I can only choose between 5 different search engines for Safari is infuriating, I self host my own SearXNG instance and have to use a bloody third-party extension to redirect my queries.
So this is it? The internet is done and finished. Killed by bots.
Apple changing their browser was the final straw that killed the internet for ya?

Why can’t things get better for once?

Reducing Google’s monopoly on search is at least a marginal improvement, even if Apple’s search ends up being equally shitty.
