It's looking to be a weak, if useable, service outlook for Google predictabilty anayltics ad services going forward.

The tardiness of Google's AI service hitting the market after over a year is not just disappointing, it's alarming. It seems like a desperate attempt to salvage dwindling ad sales revenue, especially considering how Google's search model has become outdated for users who have moved on to newer ChatGPT 4+ services. The idea that this AI service will revitalize their ad revenue is laughable. It's akin to watching a dinosaur trying to keep up with modern technology. Instead of innovating swiftly, Google appears to be taking a slow and cumbersome marketing approach, reminiscent of the cluttered ad pages found in today's outdated Fortune website articles with screaming ugle popup ads

What makes you believe (if you do) that AI powered search will be less corrupted?

Once you get used to and value receiving answers to your questions (instead of lists of bad and good links that may relate to your search-request"), the market for lists of dozens or hundreds of often-but-not-always junk, the whole business model for crap-filled-link-ads collapses. I don't see the advertising, link-based business model disappearing overnight. This could be a two to six year transition. LLM-based technologies now and in the future will get very good at providing you with a clearcut, hyperlink-referenced answer to your question(s).

What I'm really expecting to see is a collapse of link-based, revenue generating ads. People don't want garbage ads. This is going to impact all the firms making money off ads.
