Search Revolution: Meta Challenges Google and Bing with AI Technology
Meta Platforms is developing its own AI search engine in an effort to reduce dependence on Google and Bing. The company plans to use it to provide relevant information in the Meta AI chatbot on its platforms.
Meta AI Search
New Meta Strategy
According to information obtained by The Information from a source familiar with the development of the strategy, Meta Platforms is creating a search engine based on artificial intelligence. The goal of this project is to reduce dependence on search giants Google and Bing.
Functionality of the new AI search engine
It is planned that the Meta web crawler will provide detailed answers to user requests about current events in chat - Meta AI bot. This bot will be available on the company's popular platforms - WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook. Meta currently relies on Google and Bing search engines to provide information on news, promotions and sporting events.
Competition in the AI Search Market
The field of artificial intelligence search engines is experiencing rapid growth. The main competitors in the struggle for leadership are OpenAI (developer of ChatGPT), Google and Microsoft. Google is aggressively introducing its advanced AI model, Gemini, into key products including search. OpenAI uses the Bing search engine of its main investor Microsoft to answer current queries.
Problems and solutions
However, collecting data from the Internet to train AI models and search engines raises copyright concerns rights and fair compensation for content authors. To address this problem, Meta recently announced a partnership with Reuters, under which its chatbot will use the agency's content to provide answers to users' questions about news and current events in real time .

I wonder how Meta plans to compete with giants like Google and Bing? 🤔 They have a huge database and years of experience in developing search engines.
Sophie
I think Meta has the advantage of a huge user base of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. This can help them gain popularity quickly. 👍
Giovanni
Sophie, you're right. But don't forget about the privacy issues that Meta had. Many users may not trust them with their search queries. 🔒
Helga
And it seems to me that the integration of AI into search is the future. Meta has something innovative to offer. For example, more personalized results based on social media data. 🚀
Pierre
This all sounds like just another useless undertaking. Why do we need another search engine? Google is doing a great job and these newfangled AIs are just confusing. It would be better to do something really useful. 😒
Liam
Pierre, don't be such a pessimist! Competition is good. It stimulates innovation and improves the quality of services for users. 💡
Olena
What worries me the most is the issue of copyright. How will Meta address the issue of fair compensation for content creators? 🤷♀️
Sophie
Olena, this is a really important question. I hope Meta will take into account the experience of other companies and develop a transparent system of interaction with authors. Maybe even offer some kind of partnership program? 🤝
