This is it. I don't want to use some kind of AI search in fb messenger, I want to find someone to send them a message. I don't need AI search in google, I don't need it in gmail. What I need is search that actually works, there is no need to replace existing search functionality with "AI".

It is shoved everywhere but nobody really needs it.

My employer has Glean AI search. It's better than Atlassian's search for Jira/Confluence, and can simultaneously search Slack, Google Drive, & more tools where we've haphazardly scattered important documentation like sqwrls with ADHD.

Being better than Atlassian's search isn't a difficult hurdle to clear, but it's one of the only areas where I've seen a noticeable improvement caused by an "AI" product. Not sure the search actually uses AI or just happens to be a decent cross-product search tool, there's a separate interface to chat with it & have it summarize things so the search might not really be using the AI.
