The central feature of AI is search. Search today using AI is so much better than getting some half-informed blogger.

I certainly agree that it is “easier”, but the reality is that it is also less accurate than going to an authoritative source.

If you know something about the topic you’re searching, you won’t be surprised sometimes to find mistakes, poorly drawn statistics, or outright hallucinations included in the summary. And rather than go to a good source (and yes, there are half-informed bloggers too) most people will just skim the result, anccept it (because Google has been pretty good in the past) and move on.

“Easier” is good, but “Accurate” is a whole lot better.

Maybe they’ll figure out a way to fact-check the fact-check, but at the moment they don’t, and everyone is liable to accept whatever the machine spits out. That’s not really “better” by any measure.
