Anthropic has introduced a web search capability for its Claude AI assistant, intensifying competition in the rapidly evolving AI search market where tech giants are racing to redefine how users find information online.

The company announced today that developers can now enable Claude to access current web information through its API, allowing the AI assistant to conduct multiple progressive searches to compile comprehensive answers complete with source citations. The move comes as web search undergoes its most significant transformation since Google revolutionized the field more than two decades ago.

Splendid.

Regular Search: Full of AI Slop and SEO bullshit
AI Slop Websites: Visited by AI Crawlers to gather info
People: Preferring AI search to visiting websites due to insane amounts of AI slop websites hindering the ability to find information
Writers: Not writing articles because too few people will read them. Mostly hit by AI Crawlers
AI Search: Degrading due to AI slop

Result: Me touching grass until further notice
