Then you can also just as well skip that extra step and just do it yourself

    This. Research that always has to be fully confirmed hasn't actually been done in the first place.

    Solving problems by brute force don't make economic sense to me.

    Using an automation tool you can only trust for subjective tasks makes even less sense to me.

    I find that a frontier bot pointed at the internet does a lot better job of answering the question than I do when searching on my own. I mean they're always going to be wrong about some stuff, but aren't people? I think that's generally a better metric. And at this point they're far away from what they were just a few years ago. But you're correct in that there is an element of brute forcing them or at least shaping them that has to occur that I can't blame anyone for tapping out of.

    I could have always skipped the dewey decimal card catalog and just read the entire library but I'm not mycroft fucking holmes. You don't have to use a search engine, you can just follow hyperlinks until you find the content you're looking for.
