The problem with AI answers however IMO, the main difference is if Susie Blowpipe or Phil Dither are being quoted saying or claiming something that's once more complete horse shit ... chances are there will be those who'll have questioned the credibility of any such nonsense - in other words such wild claims won't be in a vacuum and good search results would probably bear that out. Rubbish being flung out by an AI search though, some people have got used to operating without a decent search engine and will just walk away with a summary rather than visit the sources to ensure credibility. Of course some people readily believe complete bunk if it reaffirms any preconceived notions.
