If you're just copying and pasting to some chatbot, is it really human interaction anymore?

Minimizing human interaction is a feature not a bug.

Google - even 20 years ago when they were good - is terrible. It often found something that looked good but was wrong in important ways. It often found things that were hard to understand.

There is still value in google first (even today with all the slop), but there is plenty of room for conversation after you have the background needed to understand the deep discussions that result after you have done some early research.

And? Why is a conversation needed?
