I don't want to “chat” with an untrustworthy compression of the documents, I want to see the documents. I understand that novel ideas have been devalued in-favor of “put more of <current-hyped-tech> into it,” but it would be much appreciated if we managed to at least preserve the original, defining primitive of the web: linking to sources. All the best,

"original defining primitive" of the web makes no sense and has diminishing value as info explodes while the 3 inch chimp brain everyone has does not.

  As an object-lesson of how confused this perspective is: why even have link aggregators like HN? Why have chatwithjfkfiles.com when you could instead ask some model what chatwithjfkfiles.com would say? The direction you're pointing to is the end of everything that makes the web a useful resource. I may well be raging against the dying of the light; perhaps indeed that usefulness is no longer valued by the majority of our species (or, at least for now, the tech sector of the US). If so, that's a tragedy. RIP. All the best,
