"I'm a bot. Trust me, bro!"
No thanks. I'd rather scour 50+ articles to find what I need than have to trust some chatbot that doesn't cite its work. Beyond that, it's "stealing" content from the sites it crawls to build that knowledge while depriving those sites of traffic.
Everyone praising these is so focused on getting an immediate answer they completely neglect anything they may learn during the search. Hell, I've researched things before and, prior to finding what I was looking for, found enough material to realize my approach was flawed. When I started over, the information I got from the "non answer" results were crucial to fixing the flaws in my original approach.
I don’t need to vet “how long to cook 6 lbs of pork shoulder in an instant pot” too hard.
Beep boop: 15 seconds per pound. Trust me, bro, I'm a bot.
