was reading up on how facebook tried to do that old-school
q&a style search back in the day w/ facebook questions. it's wild how they wanted to move toward real-time human knowledge instead of JUST indexing web pages. now we're dealing with
chatgpt eating away at traditional organic traffic and everyone is obsessed with local products. since reviews aren't the only thing that matters anymore, i wonder if we are heading back to a world of
person-to-person discovery. does anyone else think the rise of ai search makes these old social answer engines look prophetic? it feels like we're moving away from
static ratings toward more dynamic, conversational results
