This is strangely where I've found the most personal benefit of LLMs. As long as it's not too current or depend on recent information (like the weather), searching for information in LLMs reminds me a lot of Google 10 years ago.

Yea sometimes LLMs hallucinate, but sometimes websites are just wrong. For a variety of topics LLMs are just a better form of search.

I just typed this into ChatGPT (so not even a question): "tar -x??? filename.tar.gz"

It gave me back "tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz" with a breakdown of what each switch does. I don't think Google's ever been able to intuit what I'm asking for like that.
