It’s not necessarily going to be Google, but the rise of AI does not look good for the web, and it’s a largely self-inflicted wound. Have you not noticed that the typical user experience on the web is dire? You need to click through tracking consent forms, subscription overlays, put up with dark patterns, etc. Remember, half of all users don’t even use an ad blocker. We’ve collectively made the web a very unpleasant experience. Along comes a new technology that lets you just say what you want and it will go and find the answer or do what needs doing for you without any of that crap. Of course users are going to prefer it to the crap we dump on them via the web! Can you blame them‽ |

The web used to be like that, but then it was enshittified. The same thing will happen to consumer AI, and it will be done by the same people.
