Not a web-page retrieval search, but a solutions retrieval.
I'd like to start with a query and have the engine then ask me some questions. More than disambiguation, I want it to discern the breadth and depth of my knowledge along the answer line. Then have the engine teach some basic (missing) foundation and fill in my holes up to the topic.
We could dialog back and forth, exploring solutions and arriving at the best ones for me.
Examples:
"How to provide a smart power grid for distributed 2-way customers?" Which would work into monitoring and anticipating power generation/draw, placement and sizing of transformers, capacitors &, conductors, surge and safety, redundancy, weather, balancing, and even pricing models.
"How to minimize crime?" Which would work into size and type of scenario (home, business, city, country), laws. Models of culture, education vs crime. What do you mean by "crime"? Minimum levels of freedom, police, education. Even neonatal nutrition and care and their impact on crime.
Here the data wiring companies are cheaper than the electricians. And the low voltage guys must be licensed. And, in certain situations, the low voltage wiring must be inspected.
Yesterday I saw a telephone company technician do the same thing, strip 8 inches of jacket off the cables and connect up the jacks. He has been in the business for 31 years.
