The tech industry is witnessing a potential paradigm shift with the rise of AI-driven search capabilities challenging Google's dominance. John Herrman, a technology columnist, suggests that the new Google Chrome browser's easy prompts for AI-text generation could lead to a web largely authored by bots. Meanwhile, voices in tech, including Brian Roemmele, predict a stunning disruption of Google's traditional search engine and pay-per-click model, as AI cognition of user intents and a new monetization system emerge. Perplexity.ai is highlighted as a significant player in this shift, with its AI search adoption growing among tech influencers and developers. Notably, Jeff Bezos has backed Perplexity, and Microsoft has supported OpenAI, indicating a move towards alternative information retrieval methods. BGR has described Perplexity as the ad-free Google challenger the internet has been waiting for. The sentiment of a tsunami of opportunity arising from the shift away from Google towards native AI-driven experiences is echoed by DrStarson, and 'firstadopter' frames the situation as a classic case of the Innovator's Dilemma for Google. Sundar Pichai's response, according to pmddomingos, is to have DeepMind take over Google Brain, although there is internal reluctance to this strategy.

Interesting time for Google Search: > Edge defaults to Bing, which has been improving. > Safari defaults to Google but only because Google pays. > Perplexity becoming option for power users, like Google was for Yahoo. > ChatGPT beats Google at most queries for information. https://t.co/7niqhhyXh8
