Reply to comment by slimaq007 in Why AI can not replace search index by shanoshamanizum

The choice is there. I am not saying search engines are the best. All I am saying is the concept of user crowdsourced content will always be more real than an algorithm choosing from approved sources only.

AI can also be crowdsourced and managed in the same manner as search engine. Problem is bias is inherent to both of them. Webcrawler which indexes webpages for search engines with weighted algorithm giving your search engine results, and "AI" crawling web to find those resources for you (replacing natural language into query for weighted algorithm) is basically the same.

Even if the index puts an article on page 100 I can still read it. With AI I have no choice.

Search engines hide many pages

We are comparing the concepts not the behavior of providers. Indexed content choice vs an algorithm choosing the source for you.

With crowdsourced open "AI" you would have too, given enough drilling from your side.

What you are trying to imply is that in search engine you see the results, whereas in "AI" you don't have presented where it found that information. So those should be presented in "AI" and the problem will be solved.

The point is, you already don't have that choice, there are pages which are indexed so low, you not gonna find them.

That's still choice and I use it.

And you can have this choice with "AI", just write one with open and transparent dataset.

This doesn't defeat the problem with something making a decision on my behalf.

Chatbot with set of answer generators won't do it on your behalf.

How to explain it better. I don't need answer generators. I want raw content I can analyze myself.

Then use search engine and believe in misconception of those results being unbiased and possible to find

I don't need to believe anything else but the concept. Everything else is fixable and new providers are solving this.
