    I’m increasingly seeing this used as a disclaimer, as in, “don’t trust what I’m about to say; I went with the source that’s 90% useless because when I Googled it the search results were 100% useless”.

      LLM promoting skills are becoming the new google research skills. My nursing school taught me how to google and look for the CDC page or the drug monograph or the manufacturers YouTube account. Now we’re having to learn to ask the llm to fuzzy match the most likely relevant sources and follow the links to fact check from there. Wasteful sure but we’re losing google as fast as it came in.
