I haven't used it extensively but when i ask a generic coding question in brave it gives me an ai response and it does list source websites. Not sure if it's the actual source or its just pulling them from a search or what.

As you get older you begin to realize that age obsession is like gossip. It's for the low IQ folks. You're really not old until you reach 80's where stuff like cognitive decline and frailty are more likely to start showing up
