We need to go back to a more innocent time when we could ask a select group of friends and their trusted chain of friends for recommendations. Not what social media is today.
I dislike driving through Texas, and so, most road trips involve McDonalds - the only time I eat the junk.
My car's inbuilt nav is 13 years out of date, so it knows major throughways but not, for instance, that the road I live on has its own interface to the "highway", and so on, up to restaurants. Phones are unreliable in a lot of the US, and at one point I had a spare phone with all of its storage dedicated to offline Google maps just so I wouldn't get stuck in the Rockies somewhere.
Microsoft used to sell trip planning software and those were the good old days.
Like, really what you're wanting is legitimate information not bound to the whims of advertisers and marketers (and again, to be clear, don't we fucking all) but I don't think an LLM is going to do that for you. If it does it now, and that's a load-bearing if, I have a strong feeling that's because this tech, like all tech, is in it's infancy stage. It hasn't yet gotten enough attention from corporations and their slimy marketing divisions, but that's a temporary state of affairs and has been for every past tech too. Like, OpenAI just closed another funding round and it's valuation is now THREE HUNDRED BILLION. Do you REALLY think they and by extension/as a result, their competitors, are going to be thinking about editorial independence when existing established information institutions already can't?
