Let's Give Credit Where It’s Due: Adding Source Links to AI Responses

One major limitation of AI-generated responses is the lack of proper attribution to original sources. While AI models can provide useful and well-structured answers, they often rely on information gathered from various sources without directly linking back to them.

Wouldn't it be great if AI responses included source links whenever possible? and ask user to please visit the source if the response was helpful. This would:

Give proper credit to content creators.
Allow users to verify the accuracy of the information.
Help researchers, writers, and learners explore deeper.
Improve transparency and trust in AI-generated content.
This feature could work by displaying a "Visit Source" button alongside responses where source attribution is possible. The original publishers would benefit from traffic, and users would have a clearer path to explore authoritative information.

What do you think? Should AI models prioritise linking to sources when available? How could this be implemented effectively? Let’s discuss!

Fuck you have no idea how all of this works now do you ?

Maybe you are right, I am not sure bro, but I do get that attribution is tricky since it generates text based on patterns, not exact sources. but with realtime search or better citation methods or any other way we can improve transparency then we should, generally in my opinion these LLMs must have some more room for transparency..

I wouldn't be posting if I knew how to solve this 😅
