I wouldn’t call it super easy. I have a disability that severely limits my cognitive capacity and endurance. Trying to piece it together myself would have maybe taken ~10% my daily cognitive capacity which is something I can’t afford.
So using my self hosted FOSS LLM (while ofc being sceptical to catch hallucinations) was the right move for me here.
How could you catch hallucinations without checking this information with another source? Or is it the case that coming up with a correct search phrase was the hard part so when you already had the explanation it was easier to search for it? But at that point quoting the other source instead of LLM would be the obvious choice for me.

I think if a LLM is pointing to a source and quoting it directly, it might actually be a valid tool for the less able.
However
The tool would need to actually go to the page and show that content.
I was thinking that they might actually also be good at describing text and images for those unable to see or read.
Yes, that’s why I’m asking questions and not bashing this person for using an LLM.
