I’m not sure how to take you comment, but I feel the same(?) way. I love that I can use LLMs to explore topics that I don’t know well enough to find the right language to get hits on. I used to be able to do this with google, after a few queries, and skimming to page 5 hits, I’d eventually find the one phrase that cracks open the topic. I haven’t been able to do that with google for at least 10 years. I do it regularly with LLMs today.
They are extraordinarily useful for this! "Blah blah blah high level naive description of what I want to know about, what is the term of art for this?"
Then equipped with the right term it's way easier to find reliable information about what you need.
