At least with their previous features it's been possible to set the address to any custom services you may have running, remote or local. For example Against all expectations I had I've actually found the highlight -> explain tool to be useful when sent to my local vLLM instance with a template I like.

Why not google/ddg/bing etc. them? That's on the context menu too, but LLMs seem uniquely suited at some problems like acronyms that are shared across many fields but different meanings, highlighting a sentence turns out the right acronyms very fast where search engines would take several attempts and is what I used to do previously.



LLMs can make things up though.


Of course, it's generally useful for things you can verify, which for acronyms is easy as long as you find the words
