> Btw nobody clicks on sources. NOBODY.

I always click on sources to verify what an LLM in this case says. I also hear the claim that a lot about people not reading sources (before LLM it was video content with references) but I always visited the sources. Is there a statistics or studies that actually support this claim? Or is it just a personal experience, of people (including me) enforcing it as generic behavior of all people?

That's you, because you are a researcher or coder or someone who uses his brain much more than average, hence not an average joe. I ran a news site for 15 years and the stats showed that from 10000 views on an article, only a miniscule amount of clicks were made on the source links. Average people do not care where the info is coming from.

Also perplexity shows the videos on their site, you cannot go to youtube, you have to start it on their site, and then you have to click on the youtube player's logo in the lower right to get to the site.

Perplexity is getting greedy.

You said "NOBODY" (pretty sure the all caps means it's extra true).

Well, that's the reality. The tech savvy people here are the exception, and represent only a very minor percentage of users.
