Ideas for topics
Everything about searching on the Internet and search engines provides interesting questions:
- How do search results come about?
- What do search engines know about us?
- Where do they get their results?
- How will artificial intelligence, text and image generators change internet search?
- How does the search engine know what is in a picture?
- How are search results sorted?
- …
All this and much more could be topics for #fwsd events and other actions.
