It's so funny how people's behavior converge to the same patterns over time. A few years ago I was using Google searches with "reddit" appended when I wanted to see genuine people's opinions, such as reviews. Later it started getting written in mainstream how everybody was doing it. Now you are saying about Google as a quick LLM chat (because it's easily reachable from the browser's URL bar) and that's exactly how I've been using it too.

So probably the rule is, if I have discovered some convenient usage pattern, it's very likely that many other users have it discovered independently, too.

Also, it's interesting to see how Google's value has fallen to the point when it's used mostly for very low stakes use cases.
