Indeed, plus what are you going to do otherwise? Google it. And how will you vet the pages Google returns? Intuition and common sense, and perhaps an appeal to authority.

Exactly this.

And LLMs are a new thing too, it takes some getting used to. I admit I almost got burned a couple times when, for a few moments, I bought the bullshit GPT tried to sell me. Much like with Googling experience of old (sadly made near-useless over the last decade, with Google changing the fundamental ideas behind what search queries are) - as you keep using LLMs, you develop an intuition about prompting them and interpreting results. You get a feel for what is probably bullshit, what needs to be double-checked, and what can be safely taken at face value.
