I am of two minds about Google. On the one hand, ever since it first appeared I've used it as a primary tool for locating relevant items, but on the other hand, I am wary of its "AI" and user-management/extraction sides. Google Scholar ("Stand on the shoulders of giants") and Google Books ("the world's most comprehensive index of full-text books.") and Google Books Ngram Viewer are all indispensable tools for my enterprises.
