Very good Substack article "The AI doesn’t just find information; it synthesizes, plans, and executes. It’s the difference between being handed a library card and having a personal librarian who also runs your errands"
In China, this is already happening at 10x scale. AI interfaces so deeply integrated with their ecosystems that they replace search entirely. Not better search. No search. Book flights, order food, pay bills—all through one conversational OS. Complete ecosystem lock-in. The
