People do know they could have just googled things and looked at the top results before right? Even with all the enshitification it's gone through it will still usually yield something useful for any topic that isn't super niche. Like if I search "shorting" the top 3 results are articles from Wikipedia, Investorpedia, (don't know enough about it to know if it's reliable) and Charles Schwab, a source with a conflict of interest since they probably sell that service, but they're probably at least going to explain why you'd want to buy it from them, and then as a bonus the 4th result is an ELI5 Reddit thread, which while probably not the most reliable source of info, is probably about on the same level as randomly asking your SO about a topic which they're not an expert in.

Yeah but people now Google things and look at the AI summary of the top 3 results.
