alt Hacker NewsI agree and am perfectly happy using it as fuzzier web search, because it works really well for me.
Finding references is often my main goal, but other times I just want some quick facts, in which case I'll be as thorough with checking as I would when reading a random blog with spelling errors.

Actually, someone should design one that can pull in quotes. Like as a separate tool the LLM uses to quote that has guarantees, it's just a copy and can't be hallucinated. Then you could see the primary info when it's needed/asked for, similar to articles

Personally, I want the exact opposite: web search to go back to how it was 10-15 years ago, with deterministic search syntax, granular include/exclude syntax, boolean parsing, and absolutely no "did you mean?"s.
