They are VERY VERY good at search engine work with a few caveats that we'll eventually nail. The problem is, they're WAY to expensive for that purpose. Single queries take tons of compute and power. Constant training on new data takes boatloads of power.

They're the opposite of efficient; eventually, they'll have to start charging you a subscription to search with them to stay in business.
