I had an interesting conv. with my extended in laws about this last week. Basically everyone 20+ telling the mid teens that there was a golden age of google where it could answer questions "like telepathy".

It was interesting to hear a diverse (in occupation) non-tech group lamenting the search decline. I felt so validated!

Yeah I think the big reason there's not much discussion outside of tech is that people outside of tech were always less reliant on the Internet, but if you mention search engines to them, they'll often rant about how bad it's gotten.
