Semantic search is a paradox that becomes easier to understand when you compare it to a car. In the early days of automobiles cars were so problematic that unless you were prepared to get your hands dirty there was simply no way you could keep them on the road. Even up to the 80s and 90s I had friends who ‘tinkered’. Spark plugs were pulled out to be replaced by some “super-contact” sure-started. Carburetor filters were thrown out to be replaced by whatever promised to do a better job, fuel lines were cut and pumps were interjected providing either better fuel efficiency or greater fuel flow.
Today if you look at your average internal combustion engine you are hard-pressed to do anything beyond check the oil with the dipstick and top-up your windscreen washer fluid, yet you usually hardly have to wonder if the car is going to start the moment you press ‘Start’ or turn the key in the ignition.
The point is that precision, efficiency and reliability, greater usability as a matter of fact, have come as a direct result of complexity. The same principle applies to search. Semantic search is a quantum leap in terms of computing. It is a quantum leap in terms of indexing the information Google’s bots find across the web and it is a quantum leap in terms of understanding the language used when searching and the end-user’s intent. And just like with modern cars, it has become easier to use.
