      Search engine quality determined exclusively by the folks that consistently mistake their Facebook status update field for a search engine.

    Mehta said the tech giant has built “the industry’s highest quality search engine”.

    This is not wrong. They have done this, in the past. And since then, it has taken a nose dive.

    When the name becomes synonymous with the service.

    I’ll Google it to make sure this is accurate.

    I get reliably more accurate search results with Brave Search tbh. It has a neat little AI summariser tool you can disable, an option to pay $3 a month to go ad-free, it’s privacy-centric, clean design, browser-agnostic. Also, it uses its own indexer/web crawler, it doesn’t just piggyback on Bing like DuckDuckGo does.

    The only time I end up using Google is if I’m looking into a very recent event, like a thing happening in the world that took place in the last 12-24 hours or so. Google seems to index news articles quicker than Brave.
