Google searches also come up with a lot of false information (well, it's where LLMs get their learnin' from — the Internet).

I'm never asking LLMs anything super critical like, "Do my taxes for me." This morning (as an example) I asked: "Is there talk of banning DJI drones in the U.S.?"

Later: "Difference between the RSE20 and RSS20 models of Yamaha electric guitars?"

And "Is there an Eco-Tank ink-jet suitable for Dye-Sub inks that can print Tabloid?"

1) None of the above are "critical".

2) All would have been a slight pain using Google and generated a lot of ... noise. LLMs eat the noise, do a decent job of giving me the salient points that answer my question.

3) All are easily verifiable if, for example, I decided to make a purchase based on what the LLM told me.

Or put another way, my disappointment in LLMs pales in comparison to my disappointment in search.

Or maybe I am just sick of search engines and want to "stick it to them".
