Search has been nearly useless without those, especially due to the eroding quaintly of results. When you could put things in quotes, use a + to make something required, and a - to make something required to not be there, and when you could still reliably search by publication year.

...now every search result is just another form of advertisement. Unfortunately, I'm sure the AI is going to just ensure better advertisement matching, as answering a question quickly and to the point, simply misses too many advertisement run-around opportunities
