    In the long run it doesn’t really matter if the LLM is or is not trained on all the information out there, as the LLM will be able to search the Web on demand and report back with what it finds. BingChat essentially already does that and we have a few summarizer bots doing similar jobs. The need to access Websites directly and wade through all the clickbait and ads in the hope you find the bit of information you are actually interested will be over.

    The LLM will be Adblock, ReaderMode, SQL and a lot more rolled into one, a Swiss army knife for accessing and transforming information. Not sure where that leaves the journalists, but cheap clickbait might lose a lot of value.
