    Then the answers will be given even more strongly and with far less transparency by those who control the LLMs

    I don’t think so, Google Search’s algorithm’s transparency doesn’t seem any better

      But (classic) Google provides links that can be traced. LLMs do not do this consistently - and they are frequently hallucinating. Don’t you want to contribute anything to my core statement?

        Sure, LLMs give worse-quality output. That does not mean the have-haves more influence over the narrative. In fact, I’d wager LLMs won’t be able to replace search engines because of how much faster and more accurate the latter are with simple queries. And with that, we’ll still be finding information with search engines.
