Despite having everything — a world-class search engine, its own AI models, billions of users, and the world’s biggest data — why is Google still being challenged by a small startup like Perplexity? Here’s the simple truth 👇 Because Google’s biggest strength has now become its biggest limitation. Google makes most of its money from ads — it earns when you search, click, and browse. If Google starts giving you direct answers instantly (like Perplexity does), you won’t click on ads… and that’s bad for business. Perplexity, on the other hand, doesn’t care about ad clicks — it just wants to give you the best, verified answer from the web, fast and clean. That’s why it feels smarter — because it doesn’t have to protect a business model before it can improve the user experience. #google #perplexity

it's all about who is providing more value at the end wins. AI based search is natural evolution from distracting and confused ads at the same time giving a focused summary on user questions.

Perplexity is experimenting with ads to monetize its AI-powered search engine. Ads will appear as sponsored follow-up questions, rather than within the answer itself. Feels like a nicer, less invasive approach to ads.

Google Search is slipping. Apple says fewer people use Safari to search. Users are switching to ChatGPT and Perplexity instead. The AI search war has started and Google is playing defense.
