AI search
Search experiences that use models to understand queries semantically and generate direct answers with sources.
Definition
AI search blends retrieval and generation: it interprets natural-language questions, ranks results by meaning, and often synthesises an answer with citations. It appears in consumer answer engines, enterprise search, and site search for stores. Quality depends on the index, ranking, and how faithfully the answer reflects the sources.
Why it matters when choosing a tool
AI search changes how people find information and products, which affects both what tools you use and how your own content gets discovered.
