You are 100% right that AI will gobble up search revenue. Especially from known propagandists like google. Frankly I am impatiently waiting for the open source AI web crawlers which should be better than search engines right out the gate, but I am not intelligent enough myself to build that. I can just imagine having an app on my phone that uses some trustworthy version of lama where I can prompt it to go do research on whatever topic and it will slowly but surely scower the internet in all languages, through tor nodes, evading ISP blocks, intelligently filtering out bullshit and clickbait, and systematically verify data according to my instructions and then compile it into an a research paper. Even if the process takes weeks to complete it would be life changing.

Let's just appreciate the irony of Microsoft's Github hosting the development of a potential ChatGPT killer.

Naturally microsoft would want any AI development done on their platform, under their close supervision. But I suspect they would try to secretly sabotage those efforts. So there is a good chance that the GPT killer will actually come from some college club or hacker collective, with a lot of their work done using github, but the secret sauce being developed on their private systems.

Before there is an open source, or 3rd party gpt killer there will be other GPT's that overtake chat gpt, like Apple's thing, and on a commercial level google is also a competitor. So between the tech giants, nvidia, grok, lamma, stable diffusion, claude, mixtral, Mosaic, etc. there is going to be a very dynamic GPT landscape.
