“At the time, it was the most popular search query we had ever seen. But we had no surefire way getting users exactly what they wanted: JLo wearing that dress,” Google’s CEO, Eric Schmidt said in a 2015 essay. “If you looked at the search results for the query on that day, you could see that we weren’t delivering what people were asking for.”
“We realized that we needed to do better. So the day after the Grammy’s, we started work on a new type visual search engine that put images front and center; Google s,” the company stated. “In that way, Jennifer Lopez played an important role in the launch one our most popular products.”
