Attribution, great term to search. Thank you.

Websearching "attribution + AI" brings up a lot of hits on copyright concerns. Which opens up even more questions. If we get to the point where AI attributes it's sources with some sort of scoring, then it's near certainly going to be using copyrighted materials at times. And depending on the copyright and what profits the AI company is gaining from their use and probably a bunch more detailed copyright stuff beyond my civilian acknowledge, there's probably financial and legal reasons for AI searches to not publicly attribute sources. Which loops me back to, I want to see conflicting materials and make a judgement call on final summary myself in many cases.

I'm sure there are many people much smarter than me with nothing but pure, ethical intentions figuring all this out. Who knows, maybe this will be the tipping point for better copyright and intellectual property protections in the US and elsewhere.
