> However, it can't cite, can't fact check, doesn't know when it's hallucinating Maybe some folks need this, but the way I use this tech doesn't rely upon that so much. By the time results start appearing, my brain is already fast at work processing the output to qualify whether the information the LLMs return is accurate, whether it's a good leaping off point, whether I can keep drilling deeper, expand my prompt scope, etc. I'm using it as search. Just as old search had garbage results we had to filter out, so do LLMs. But this tool is a way more advanced query language than Google ever supported. These tools are like "Google 9000". It feels like I'm plugged into the Matrix rather than getting SEO'd garbage. I know the results have issues, but that doesn't matter - I can quickly draw together the pieces and navigate around it. Compared to Google, it feels like piloting a star ship. |

Seems unnecessarily tiring. Instead I use a SEO spam and ad-free search engine. It's called Kagi. It allows me to further refine my search via lenses and site prioritization. Also, it has zero hallucination chance, because it's a deterministic search engine.

Same for Kagi, without selling my data or trawling information obtained without consent or disregard of ethics, and many other things.
Note: I don't use any of the Kagi's AI features, incl. proofreading.
