I agree, but the question is, how to use responsibly. I like to use it as an assistant that can look things up. Googling has the tendency to bring up outdated information, a good AI model is able to cross-reference what it finds with documentation and release notes. I never let the AI write anything for me though.
This is exactly how I use it too. Google and other search engines have gone to complete shit in order to cater to LLMs. So that's how I use the LLM. You are my search bitch, Gemini. No, you're not allowed to actually create anything.
They went to shit long before LLMs, they went to shit for SEO and algorithmic capitalism.
