Avant Post - Opening Pandora's Search Box: Google vs AI with Rogue Ex-Googler, Ben Kruger

12 Aug 2023

Description

Join Chris and Eric with special guest and rogue ex-Googler, Ben Kruger as we discuss the Google's innovators dilemma and opportunity as it relates to the roll out of AI! * The Big Catch-22- Google can't ignore the inevitable path to generative results- But how can it do this without sacrificing the publisher & advertiser ecosystem?- Odds are they'll probably attempt some kind of fence-straddling compromise. It's unclear if this is tenable. * Fresh-Squeezed Organic- No matter how it's spun, SGE is basically all bad news for web publishers- There will be less "listings" in generative answers, and less incentive for users to click through- How will publishers adapt to a world where Search becomes a less accessible channel? * Just Not Clicking- Similarly to publishers, advertisers will likely find clicks a lot harder to come by- eCPCs are almost certain to explode higher as the current demand levels chase far less inventory- How will advertisers adapt to an increasingly winner-take-all ecosystem? * Conclusion- Does The Search Box go the way of the DVD (dead), or Cable TV (diminished, but still here & part of a larger platform)?AI-Enabled Cognitive Search: Google has introduced a real-time cognitive search that combines Bard AI-synthesized content with regular Google search results. When combined with Google Shop, this feature could prove beneficial for websites and e-commerce enterprises, providing a unique selling point for Google.
