have you tried chatgpt search? you can do "DC plane crash" or "Frob" it will come up with links to the story, but it will quickly give you a summary with links to its sources. Best thing is you can follow up with questions.

Yes, I have. If I want something to read the page for me, then that's where LLMs come in.

But what I'm talking about is when I want to read the page for myself. Waste of time to have to wait for an LLM to chew on it.

hah i use llms for that now too - "option-space 'link to <foo> lang'" and chat returns faster than the whole endeavor of opening google or putting stuff into the nav bar.

That’s my experience too. I don’t find Google or even Kagi faster for retrieving a link. All of the major LLMs can pull search results faster than I can through search websites, and then I’ve got a conversation where I can dive deeper if I want.
