Yes and my phone isn't thinking when I'm waiting on a spinner but that's how human language works.

Also not all AI outputs are based on web searches, generative AI can be used offline and will spit out information derived from their internal weights which were assigned based on training data so quite literally internalizing information.

The Web searches are a way for the AI to be seeded with relevant context (and to account for their training being a snapshot of some past time), and aren't necessary for them to produce output.

Pedantry is well and good but if being pedantic you should also be precise.
