The evolution of the Google browser or how Google is becoming our slave

Google is becoming our slave.

Google usually told us how to do something. Now it will do it for you. Some time ago, Google refined its famous browser with two small but important additions. Type "find my phone" and Google will locate it on a map and offer to call it. If you type "send directions" it will direct you to it. Google has come a long way in its 16-year search history, but this is actually just the beginning.

The evolution of Google is really fascinating. In 16 years became the answer to everything. More. Now it doesn't just tell you how to do something, now this it simply does it for you. The browser has really advanced tremendously during this time. Once we were in search field typed in the desired word, its interface spewed out an endless list of links that could also be called potential answers. But Google has gotten better than that. He learned to recognize questions in our native language and later became more clairvoyant, because it started predicting what we want to type even before we actually type it. A few more improvements here and there and now when you ask Google a simple question like "How many kilometers is it to the moon" you'll get the desired answer before the list of links, which hide the answer.

The question thus becomes the demands. With the aforementioned novelty Google now changes his skin and will slowly transform from one that provide the answer, in the one who offers a solution. Our desire (ie question) becomes a command for him. We tell the machine to find our smartphone and direct us to it. And he does.

Google search engine like that he is becoming a slave to us and he likes it. Of course, there are many (other than ethical) obstacles within this, but it is only one step until we can order him to deliver us a pizza, check the oil in the car or pay the electricity bill. Catch 22? We are paying the price of convenience with an ever-increasing dependence on Google, this mega-corporation that is increasingly taking on the appearance of Big Brother. And this just begs the question: "Does Google work for us or do we work for Google?"
