> Team of Google researchers has published a proposal for a radical redesign that throws out the ranking approach and replaces it with a single large AI language model, such as BERT or GPT-3—or a future version of them.
> The idea is that instead of searching for information in a vast list of web pages, users would ask questions and have a language model trained on those pages answer them directly.
> The problem is that even the best search engines today still respond with a list of documents that include the information asked for, not with the information itself.
> Metzler and his colleagues are interested in a search engine that behaves like a human expert. It should produce answers in natural language, synthesized from more than one document, and back up its answers with references to supporting evidence, as Wikipedia articles aim to do.

TLDR: In short, I just want to open the query in a new window on the same desktop I'm in.
A workaround I have for this is to use a new "Reading" Activity, where I have a clean-of-tabs browser and everything is on the main desktop.But for other use cases it still would be useful to be able to open in a different browser window
So I find this extension pretty useful when reading in another language, I just type the abbreviature and the result comes... in a new tab. Which is not what I want, I wish it opened in the current desktop I'm in at that moment in a new window, so I don't have to go to the desktop that has my other tabs and there see the results and come back to the other one that has Foliate or the program I'm reading in.It would be ok if it allowed me to choose another browser, I think that would also solve my problem atm.
Hello!
I'm a programmer, yet I suck at python (I believe this is the best language to do this in) and My client owns a trading card company where they sell pokemon, yugioh, vanguard, MTG. etc cards, and they are looking for an easy way to do price checking of their main competitors.
What they do now is every time a new card set comes out, they go to about 10 different competitor's websites and search for each card getting their price. What my client wants to do is to have an interface where they can simply do a search query in a single location either for a card number or card name, and have something that spits back the title and price of that card (or a few cards depending on the query) from every competitor all in 1 place so they don't need to repeat the process 10 times on 10 different websites for every card.
budget is around $50-$150
Please let me know if you are interested!
Thanks!
Hello,
I am using the web part at https://web.archive.org/web/20201014031829/https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/search-parts/search-results in a Communication Site and I am trying to set a dynamic query that depends on a page property.
If set the query with a fixed value as: path:https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/contosonews/Photos Company=Microsoft, the results are correctly returned.
But if I change my query to use a page property called Company, it doesn't work. I am using a query variable explained in the above article as follows:
path:https://<tenant>.sharepoint.com/sites/contosonews/Photos Company={Page.Company}
IMPORTANT: Company is a choice field and the user chooses in the Page Details the value of the Company field when editing the page.
How can I use the page property of type Choice (in this case called Company) in my search query to have a dynamic query?
Thanks

Edit: Title should be "Brave Search" instead of "BAT Search"
Where do I report results like this? With the 'safe search: strict' option turned on the first search result with a search which (as far as I know) has no sexual innuendo. The first result leads to a website which livestreams naked women, in spite of the strict search mode.
How do I report a result which should not show up under the strict search mode?
Hi Guys,
I need help. I want to use Web Query in my Excel Sheet to show the Gross Sales of the movies that I am looking for.
Information about the movies are in columns A and B.
Column A contains the title, column B has the year when the movie was released.
Column C to E will displayed the Gross Sales of these movies based on the websites: the-numbers, boxofficemojo and imdb respectively.
How it should display the Gross Sales should be dynamic. Meaning, as the movie information in columns A and B changes, it should show the correct Gross Sales as taken from their respective websites.
I already made a search for similar topics in this forum, but they seem to be outdated already and thus don't apply.
Thanks in advance.
| Movie Title | Year | the-numbers.com | boxofficemojo.com | imdb.com |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Captain Marvel | 2019 | |||
| Spider-man | 2002 | |||
| Toy Story | 1995 |
How can I create web query for saved search or convert saved search into a report. My goal is to get saved search data into Excel. Thanks
Hi All, I'm trying to set up an Excel Web Query with Excel 2016. My goal is for Excel to make a query from:
https://brokercheck.finra.org/search/genericsearch/list where the query will pull the details on all Financial Advisors employed at a broker/dealer, say Edward Jones for example.
I have two issues when making this query:
- When I make a search on Broker Check for Advisors at Edward Jones, the URL does not change on Broker Check webpage.
- There are hundreds of pages of data, and I'm not sure how to query more than the first page from a search result.
Sorry, I'm pretty new to web queries so any advice or examples from similar projects is much appreciated.
Thanks!

It's still in very active development, but you can start using it at dataharvest.lol.
I started working on this because I found myself writing scripts to understand if my Samira was better on Last Stand or Coup de Grace, or if I was better when building Kraken or Shieldbow on Vayne. I somewhat thought there had to be a way to abstract that reasoning into a more general system and this is the outcome. Although there are limitations, it should already provide a lot of interesting data that you can't find precalculated in stats websites.
I hope there are some nerds that appreciate something like this half as much as I do, cheers!
Hi all,
Quite new to power queries but I have a basic understanding of them.
Basically I want to search for a product on a website and return the prices, say Pepsi for example. But the website displays search results in pages of 10, with no option to view all on one page. Is there a way to scrape the data for all products matching the search, regardless of how many pages of results there are?
The system will allow API consumers to search and filter all data. They can specify complex queries to get the data. The system will use either Algolia or Elastic Search which both have their own query syntaxes. The issue is that if the system accepts queries in the native syntax of Algolia or Elastic, the system will be forever tied to that syntax. I'm wondering if there is a .NET framework that allows a consumer to specify search queries in a database-independent way that can render to the specific platform's query language.
Looking to achieve something like this app.com/search?query=blabla
Would it have to be an optional parameter in the get route for the search?
I could do a post request but that goes against how most searches behave. Currently the search system doesn't have any optional parameter and while it works fine, I think having the search query in the URL would be a better way of going about it!
In the past I haven't needed to implement a full-blown search system so I haven't stumbled across something like this before. Quite a straight forward thing but something I'm admittedly struggling with.
Any assistance would be appreciated! :)
So i started noticing recently that when i search something i keep getting unrelated videos from my subscriptions or homepage or whatever, i've screenshot (terrible screenshot i am sorry but i used firefox screenshot tool and it just came out as a mess) it happening and i find it annoying and hilarious at the same time
Google Chrome on Nexus 6, reproducable on other devices. Queries with 3 letters simply return this screen: http://i.imgur.com/Am6CyxH.png
