Plus like half of the time this happens to me, the summary is WILDLY inaccurate about what the source states.

LLMs are quite good at "I need a thing that does [vague description]" searches, FAR better than ~all "semantic" searches. But oh boy. I do not like them "answering" queries. Feels extremely dangerous.

Its weirdly hit or miss, not sure why, HN data is available in reasonably annotated forms.
