'Google senior vice president Prabhakar Raghavan told the Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference that according to Google's internal studies, "something like almost 40% of young people when they're looking for a place for lunch, they don't go to Google Maps or Search, they go to TikTok or Instagram."'

This seems like a terrible search experience though!

I just tried searching for local lunch places to me in Instagram, and the results are useless!

I'll have to try TikTok I guess, but I dont see how a platform full of short-form video is going to give me a sensible result about where to eat!

What am I missing here!?
