I'm sure it makes sense to start with wikipedia and instant-answer type searches from a tech standpoint if that's what you can iterate on best, and if you've got ideas for preventing confident falsehoods.
It's also the type of search where I'm sure this addition is least valuable. If I'm searching for a discrete fact that I know exists, stuff that you find on wikipedia, that's the type of search that still works fine. Instant answers are convenient but not necessary.
Often when I'm trying to solve a problem I need to break it down into more generic, smaller components, discrete pieces of information that I know exist, then search for those and recombine/recontextualize the information I got. Or branch out into new searches based on anything that was an "unknown unknown" before the initial search.
I'm hoping LLMs can help with both of these things. Allow me to search for something closer to the problem I'm actually solving rather than requiring me to break it down into components; do the recombination for me and do some of the branching for me.
