I think we're in that period right now with Google a.i. where they are trying to get you hooked on it. Remember how LED light bulbs used to last a long time? Now that most people have converted to them, they don't. Once folks get used to searching through a.i. it will likely start to feature advertising and lead you toward buying a product, or be behind a paywall, or both. The price will go higher. Just like TV has evolved. It all boils down to money eventually.
At this point in time, it gives you references. When it stops doing that I stop using it. For example, when I ask how high a breather valve (AAV) should be under a sink vanity, it refers to the proper section of International plumbing code and you can read it for yourself. If it refers you to YouTube videos of DIYers, I still look for the code. By the way, that is one piece of misinformation that is all over YouTube.
