Google can't tell me what "Despacito" mean in a whole page

I know it&#x27;s nice to bash Google, but its result is not bad at all. It autocompletes the question (from about &quot;what does despa...&quot;), provides the necessary context information (artist, song video, full lyrics, related video among which videos about the word meaning). Then a section of predefined q&amp;as the first of which is &quot;what does despacito mean&quot; and finally relevant web pages with the answer to the question.<p>In contrast, GPT&#x27;s answer is just text, however does what Google can&#x27;t: explains how the title relates to the song&#x27;s meaning.

At one point they supported the &#x27;define:&#x27; query prefix, but that seems to be broken these days.<p>It will be interesting to see what steals the crown - even with monopoly power your product needs to meet a certain quality baseline to stay top dog.

Google can&#x27;t do a lot of things. Terrible search engine.
