Have you guys seen Deep Research? I'm completely blown away that I can have the thing make entire trip itineraries for me, something I just could not do before without paying a human lots of money.
I've used the deep research features from OpenAI, Grok, and most recently Anthropic. They're super impressive, but I can't shake the feeling that they're mostly giving me a summarized explanation of what the first 2 pages of Google Search is returning.
Also, insofar that they're researching a topic, they're not sufficiently critical. They are highly influenced by what they read, and they tend to take the results they're given more or less at face value.
For instance, I asked about a medical product for my girlfriend. I explicitly asked for a critical look at its efficacy, any studies in the area, etc.. and it seemed like 90% of the sources it considered were from the product's own website. It basically gave me an uncritical reporting of what they said about their own product.
