Jan 7, 2013, 20:59 IST

Search has come a long way since the early days of Altavista and Yahoo.

We've gone from relying solely on search engines with a bunch of blue links to using more advanced tools like Google's Knowledge Graph, Siri, Google Now, Yelp, and Foursquare.

But Google Senior VP and Fellow Amit Singhal told Tom Vanderbilt at Wired that search still hasn't been completely solved.

Here's the future of search, according to Vanderbilt:

  • Search will become even more personal, and Google will be able to know what you're looking for based on who you are.
  • Search engines will not only find, but interpret what they find by generating their own algorithms.
  • Advances in artificial intelligence and natural language understanding will result in deeper descriptions and understanding of web pages.
  • Answers, not links, will become more prevalent.
  • Search will do things, rather than simply suggest things.
  • Our digital lives will be combined into one searchable platform.
