These days, whenever I think about Google, I recall a line from Madame Bovary. “She wanted to die, but she also wanted to live in Paris,” Flaubert writes, capturing Emma Bovary’s provincial reality and her romanticized dreams of escape. That is Google in a nutshell, isn’t it?

You get a list of results that looks a bit like Google without the AI answer up top and without any ads. There is a “quick answer” button you can click towards the top of the results that WILL generate an AI response but it isn’t visible by default
