Summary
- AI-generated answers are convenient and provide links for further research
- These links however, are not always vetted, and thus not always safe
- To ensure your safety when using AI search engines, you should:
- Double-check URLs as scam sites will have very similar addresses
- Ensure that the website uses HTTPS to tell if a site is secure
- Do not rely solely on AI answers
- Look at search results in regular search engines to cross-check
- Use a link checker to scan for safety reports on URLs
