I will admit I use almost no "Traditional search" where I have to then go click on links to figure out if they're a moderate match and rely more on the AI summaries. Which might be something I need to reconsider.

I've been having similar thoughts. I do all my question asking to AI instead of Google these days which seems like a good way to get indoctrinated. On the other hand, I like it much better.

This is where I do like how Grok handles it. Grok annotates it's answers with links to sources.

Gemini does too, but you would actually have to click on them.
