And what to do about it all

Google won Search a long time ago. When they won it, they still had to compete against a lot of other different search engines. It was the founder’s brilliant observation that they should order search results based on how many people linked to those pages. This usually resulted in the best search results for your query being shown at the top of google (Who ever needs to go to the 2nd page of Google means you didn’t do something right).
Ai is a different beast. Today I made a App Folder on my Phone for all the different Chatbots I use: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude. I find myself unsure of the responses of one, I copy and paste the same prompt and put it to the other LLM’s and see what they come up. Results are similar, but I can’t easily tell which one is best. What will the “Backlink” discovery of Ai be and who will make it? Well that is the Billion Dollar Question, right now, isn’t it? What do you think it will be?
Until Tomorrow,
