I use claude/gemini as my homepage now (I have to keep switching as these companies make "updates" that periodically render their models useless). Even if I want to search for simple things, I would rather have an LLM wade through the result and extract just the information I asked for. SEO, and now mountains of slop content have made this necessary. Only a matter of time before the SEO industry in large figures out how to game LLMs too, making them equally useless.

I already saw a article recently about how to set up a business domain which can reliably show up in a search result and dump overly positive reviews into anyone's context.
