    How does the AI know the “best night clubs”?

    It just regurgitates, with a level of randomness, the existing user reviews you would have gotten on a search result. Plus AI leaves a ton of opportunity to obscure advertising by influencing the summary output to favor certain locations in a way that is less obvious than ads and search result ordering.

    Yeah, it is great at getting an answer that looks plausible as long as you don’t care about accuracy. At that point just do a web search for nearby clubs and pick one randomly, the end result is the same except the latter isn’t driving up costs and increasing pollution for everyone else nearly as much as AI.
