Tbf it often gets things wrong and has hallucinations already, and while that is still there in traditional searches AI removes it from it's context and puts it right at the top of the results, where it insinuates that it is the most accurate results.

This highlights the issue quite well imo, it's easier for a human to understand satire or nuance or context or when to take X with a grain of salt depending on the source and other context clues than it is for a lowly machine to do the same, and when the machine fails at the distinction and pushes false things as truth devoid of (or even with slightly obfuscated) context and by the way it does it while it pretends to be human itself, it makes it easier for the human to just accept it as fact. Should they? Of course not, but currently it seems to be an issue and whether you hate AI or love AI bringing attention to this issue (in a hilarious way no less) can only be a good thing.
