AI Overviews boost Reddit engagement in safe communities by 12% but conversational AI Mode reverses gains for experience-based content.
ConSearcher generates query-based member personas in an LLM conversational tool, yielding higher information-seeking outcomes and engagement than baselines in a 27-person study, with noted risks of over-personalization.
A new sequential interaction framework lets LLMs propose questions to forums, with simulations on real Stack Exchange data showing players can reach roughly half the utility of an ideal full-information scenario despite incentive misalignment.
A study of seven LLMs finds that realistic prompt variations such as one-character misspellings trigger library hallucinations in up to 26% of cases, fabricated names in up to 99%, and time-based prompts in up to 85%, and introduces LibHalluBench for evaluation.
ChatGPT retains 94.8% of information-seeking occasions without outbound referrals and wider access displaces 9.4% of traditional search queries, with losses concentrated on informational and ad-supported destinations.
