If someone uses an LLM as a replacement for search, and the output they get is correct, this is just by chance.
Furthermore, a system that is right 95% of the time is arguably more dangerous tthan one that is right 50% of the time. People will be more likely to trust the output, and likely less able to fact check the 5%.
