Episode notes
AI-Dominated Search
- AI systems will search much more frequently than humans, potentially quadrillions of times per year.
- The future of search lies in AI-driven queries, not human ones.
Limitations of Keyword Search
- Google excels at simple queries but struggles with complex ones.
- This has trained users to only ask Google what it can handle, limiting the perception of search potential.
Neural Search Approach
- Exa uses neural networks, specifically transformers, to power its search.
- Embeddings are currently used but are not sufficient for achieving perfect search.
