there's a reason LLM + internet search is quickly becoming the most efficient way to find information, it ingests text content, strips all fluff, customizes it to your specific query. Some offer quick source links too if you want to validate, but nobody is anything of that.

Google-Fu is being replaced with Prompting-Fu

not being allowed or choosing not to spend time learning the limits, benefits and drawback of different LLM models is basically handicapping yourself.

Sure. But it's like... the LLM is a tool to super charge your human association thinking. It's not a search per se, and every time you get the correct answer that's just happy accident (although I realize it happens a lot).

I'd like to see an actual LLM+search system that dreams up hypothesis and then tries to falsify them and confirm them with actual search. That seems like it could be a great search system.

But that's not what we have today afaik. What we have are systems that pump out "you can't lick a badger twice" type misinformation on a massive scale, all unique.
