    Same goes for people that respond “just google it” to online questions on social media. It’s about the conversation, ya dinks.

      That but also googling isn’t that easy for some questions (especially for those who don’t know how to google well).

      For instance you lost the name of something, and let’s say it’s something niche…

      I love how language ai can now help with that.

        Plus if you post the answer in a reply it means that everyone else who reads the thread now has it without needing to do their own searches.

        It’s really screwed up how many people still think that conversations on publicly a accessible websites are one-on-one things.
