> I have read many blog posts linked off 1st ranking position google queries in the past and found their answers to have inaccuracies as well, how is that better?
It's roughly as bad, if you assume the same degree of trust in both scenarios. I don't make that assumption. I get the sense that people are more likely to trust the AI answer at the top of the search results page or handed back to them in a ChatGPT conversation than they are to totally buy a random blogger. If I'm wrong, then great.
