For more than two decades, <\/span>“searching on Google”<\/span><\/b> or <\/span>“googling”<\/span><\/b> was almost synonymous with searching on the Internet. The verb became a habit, and Google monopolized the gateway to digital knowledge. But something is changing: <\/span>we no longer search the same way, nor in the same places, nor with the same expectations<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The emergence of LLMs in our daily lives is moving us away from Google as the only route to digital discovery. Today it is necessary to analyze what role <\/span>artificial intelligence<\/span><\/b> plays in the present and future of searches and what consequences this will have for companies, brands, and users.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A Hegemony Under Question<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Without a doubt, Google remains the dominant search engine, but its position is no longer unquestionable. Many have already warned about this, and during recent months we continue to read articles of all kinds explaining that browsing habits have changed as a result of the better user experience offered by conversational search. Finally, very significant data has begun to appear that speaks to us of a paradigm shift in something that for decades remained as immovable as Google’s quasi-monopoly in the search engine business.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time and in other spaces, users’ own experience is mutating: <\/span>TikTok, YouTube, and emerging platforms like Perplexity or You.com<\/span><\/b> have become real alternatives for getting information, shopping, or resolving doubts. The digital world has altered the rules of the game regarding how audiences relate to information sources, and this also affects the playing field of search engines, and consequently, the main party affected by the changes is Google itself.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this context, the question is not whether Google will continue to exist, but <\/span>whether its search engine will continue to be the center of gravity of the Internet<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From Links to Direct Answers<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The classic search engine model consisted of typing a keyword and receiving a list of links. Today, users expect <\/span>immediate answers<\/span><\/b>, without needing to click on dozens of pages.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Artificial intelligence accelerates this change: <\/span>chatbots like ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Bard already offer results in conversational format<\/span><\/b>, with explanations and context, reducing the relevance and usefulness of Google’s classic “top 10.”<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The user experience itself has changed, and this has to do with factors of diverse nature. There’s no need to go see the pages suggested by the search engine and make a decision, whether to contact a dental clinic or choose a supplier. An LLM can generate a better selection of pages, understand much better what you’re looking for, and guide you to make the best purchasing decision. It is this user experience that Google seeks to generate by integrating AI-generated results into <\/span>search<\/span><\/i>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From SEO to SRO: A New Paradigm<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For years, everything revolved around <\/span>SEO (Search Engine Optimization)<\/span><\/b>, optimizing pages so that Google would index and rank them. But new AI-powered systems no longer work that way.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Today we talk about <\/span>SRO: Search, Reasoning, Output<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Search:<\/span><\/b> AI locates information in real-time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. Reasoning:<\/span><\/b> interprets and organizes content according to context and intent.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. Output:<\/span><\/b> delivers an answer or even executes actions for us.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This change is radical: content must no longer just <\/span>attract clicks<\/span><\/b>, but must be <\/span>comprehensible to large natural language models<\/span><\/b>, structured and verifiable. Brands that don’t adapt their strategy to this framework risk becoming invisible, even if they appear on Google. Traditional SEO must coexist with practices aligned with the need to also optimize content with the fundamental objective of making it easily interpretable by artificial intelligence. We are moving from sending signals to Google to sending them, through the same channel, also to an enormous constellation of AI tools that are in turn training themselves to gain a share of the search market.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        The Failures and Challenges of AI in Searches<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        This new model is not without risks. <\/span>Recent cases of erroneous or even harmful responses in AI-powered searches have generated controversy.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        The challenge is not only technological, but ethical and economic:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
