i am waiting for day when google kill its search engine

That day might come unless they can get the quality of search back under control.

I wouldn't be surprised (or sad) if a disruptor comes along with a new idea and gives 'em a hard time.

Personally I've already replaced a high percentage of my Google searches with the OpenAI gpt-4 playground.

I replaced google with Kagi. It’s much much much better. So much better that I’m literally willing to pay for a search engine. It just doesn’t compare.

Already has.

Tried searching for anything on it recently?

And then they started pushing Bard which in sure will replace search as soon as it can push ads slyly in conversation

They already have, it’s pay to play now
