I find it amusing that once you try to take LLMs and do productive work with them either this problem trips you up constantly OR the LLM ends up becoming a shallow UI over an existing app (not necessarily better, just different).

The UI of the Internet (search) has recently gotten quite bad. In this light it is pretty obvious why Google is working heavily on these models.

I fully expect local modes to eat up most other LLM applications—there’s no reason for your chat buddy or timer setter to reach out to the internet, but LLMs are pretty good at vibes based search, and that will always require looking at a bunch of websites, so it should slot exactly into the gap left by search engines becoming unusable.
