I see this sentiment a lot on here, always with a vague intimation that it's a widespread thing. But it is just so far out of sync with the way I use search I just can't wrap my head around it. You say 90% of you usage, but then describe the sorts of things that make up only a tiny fraction of mine. 90% of mine, maybe more, is just very quickly looking up basic facts. Was this the same actress from that other show? How many Xs to a Y? What was the exact wording of that quote and who said it? Where's that one store? I do this, I dunno, probably dozens? of times a day. Are you saying you use it for that kind of purpose? I don't think I would trust any LLM's answers to those kinds of questions -- at least, not to exclusively handle all of them, on an ongoing basis. Even if it's only making up bullshit 5% of the time, after long enough that means I have no idea which 5% of my knowledge is wrong. Unless I'm double checking the information elsewhere, in which case what's the point? Meanwhile Google still supplies the right answer for those simple, basic facts immediately like 99% of the time. A lot of the time right there in a snippet where I also instantly know the attribution. Even if we perfectly solved hallucination, the friction to get it from one of these chatbots is still so much higher. Harder to get to, so much slower.
