I use ddg instead of google but it does show answers. I don't go to google for chatbots, i do go to find answers and more than not i find myself unsatisfied with the LLM answer so i end up diving past SEO spam (also LLM written these days) to find where i need to go. It's very frustrating and i'm feeling very pessimistic about the future of the web. It seems to be atrophying.
In most countries, AI answers are the central aspect of Google now. Not the ranked pages.
