I still search quite a bit, but with Kagi. I've been increasingly using their quick answer feature (sufficing a query with a question mark), which prompts a RAG (I think) LLM response. It blows my mind that Kagi's output with their AI responses is just so much better than the Google ones. It cites it's sources and then I can click in and go to the specific article to verify. For really simple things that accuracy being only 95% being fine, it's been an absolute dream.

My favorite example is asking for the release date of some media. We've had to sift through ten paragraph articles filled with nonsense for years, just to see at the bottom that "the release date has not been announced yet".
