The next big thing is Search: From Keyword to A.I. (and Beyond)

What’s changed in technology in the last twenty-five years?

The (obvious) answer is: pretty much everything. From cell phones, to email, to that ear-splitting dial-up internet tone… it’s more difficult to name what hasn’t changed.

Now, you’re probably thinking that search has changed dramatically since the ‘90s. And, you’re right. Consumer search has seen dramatic improvements in that period of time, thanks to Google.

Keyword Search powers the majority of business websites, but it is light-years from the experience you get when searching on Google.
