Supplementary notes

The source divided AI-powered search usage in comparison to the current of role search engines in three broader types:

Search and discovery: redirect consumers to third-party websites or display summarized results (primary domain of search engines)
Information processing and management: redirect consumers to third-party websites (common use case of search engines)
New content generation: less common use case applied or offered by search engines, as consumers typically navigate directly to other third-party tools for these usage instances.
