The problem with the news is who makes the decision on which outlets should be blindly trusted by the LLMs and which shouldn't? It also opens the door to government overreach, say a mandate that says LLMs must use fox news as a source of verified, vetted information.
Barring that, we are still relying on the execs at the model companies to pick and choose news outlets, and they have their own biases.
I totally agree, centralization is dangerous, ideally we want any output to be corroborated by multiple, independent sources of truth. But given that the alternative is the absolutely unregulated, unaccountable, wild west of arbitrary content posted on the Internet, I cannot see a solution besides some sort of centralization of trust.
