Generative search engine text documents

A system comprising:

• a processing system;
• and
• a computer memory comprising instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the system to perform operations of:
• obtaining a set of search result links from a search grounding system corresponding to a search query received from a client device;
• based on providing a search intent prompt and the set of search result links to a first generative AI model, receiving a set of topic sections from the first generative AI model based on the set of search result links;
• for a first topic section of the set of topic sections:
• obtaining a set of first topic section links from the search grounding system;
• and
• based on providing a first topic section prompt that includes the first topic section and the set of first topic section links to a second generative AI model, receiving a first curated topic section with text and linked citations;
• and
• based on providing the first curated topic section and a second curated topic section with a generative document prompt to a third generative AI model, receiving a generative text document that includes a directed answer followed by one or more curated topic sections.

A computer-implemented method for generating one or more search result documents using one or more artificial intelligence (AI) models, comprising:

• obtaining a set of search result links from a search grounding system corresponding to a search query received from a client device;
• based on providing a search intent prompt that includes the search query, the set of search result links, and query intent instructions to a generative AI model, receiving a set of topic sections from the generative AI model determined from a ranked list of intents corresponding to the search query and the set of search result links, wherein each topic section in the set of topic sections includes a topic title and a topic query;
• for each topic section in the set of topic sections:
• receiving a set of topic section links and corresponding content in response to providing the search query and the topic query to the search grounding system;
• and
• receiving a curated topic section with text having linked citations from the generative AI model based on providing a topic section prompt that includes the topic title, the set of topic section links, and the corresponding content to the generative AI model;
• and
• receiving a generative text document that includes a directed answer followed by one or more multiple curated topic sections from the generative AI model based on providing the generative AI model with a generative document prompt that includes the search query, the ranked list of intents, multiple curated topic sections, and a directed answer instruction.
