For 27 years, Google has offered users the opportunity to use the “I'm Feeling Lucky” button on its homepage.
However, it seems that the company may soon scrap this feature and consign it to history. The tech giant is currently testing the integration of its artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot into the homepage. One option being considered is replacing the “Lucky” button with a new one called “AI Mode.”
By selecting this mode, the user would enter a conversational search interface, eliminating the need to look through a long list of results. Google officially announced this functionality earlier this month.
For those who rarely or never use it, we recall the function of the “I'm Feeling Lucky” button: essentially, it bypasses the standard list of search results on the desktop version and takes you directly to the page that best matches your search. Statistical data on the use of this button is scarce, but back in 2007, former Google CEO Marissa Mayer estimated that about 1% of all searches were conducted through it.
Considering the increasing number of users searching via mobile devices (where this button does not exist), it is possible that today the percentage of its use is even lower.
However, it may not be the end of the line for this feature, as Google is also considering another option – placing an AI mode card on the far right of the search field. If this idea is implemented, the legendary “Lucky” button could survive.
It's not the first time the "Lucky" button's fate has been called into question. In 2010, Google introduced the Google Instant feature, which displayed search results in real time as users typed their queries, with the aim of making searches faster and more intuitive, Digital Trends reported.
Although the button remained in place, it was obscured by the results that appeared as you typed. Google removed Google Instant in 2017, and the “Lucky” button became visible to everyone again. But this time, the “threat” seems more serious. /Telegraph/
