So every time a reporter researches something and does a Google search and Gemini results pop up now AI use has to be added to the methodology section and basically 100% of all articles have the "AI use" label attached.

Yes because it would tell me immediately that the reporter can be safely ignored.
Yes, just the same as I would expect an encyclopedia reference called out for not being a primary source of a declared fact.
If they use the information from the AI summary without checking, then definitely, they'd be a rubbish reporter.
