An op-ed titled 'New Arbiter of Truth' examines the societal implications of replacing human interaction with artificial intelligence for information retrieval. The piece highlights a growing trend where individuals increasingly rely on chatbots rather than interpersonal communication to answer questions and seek knowledge.

The commentary concludes that there is an urgent need to audit the knowledge bases of these models to make their underlying logic visible, preventing AI from becoming the unchallenged authority on truth.
