Kagi is playing a smart game. They will catch the search traffic that Google is abandoning. Similar to what happened to RSS when Google Reader was shut down - a few other players caught a good amount users.
Pessimistically, I get the strong impression that AI is cannibalizing search traffic, not competing search engines. The delivery format overall is changing, even if power users prefer the traditional approach.
