Google, Forums like reddit and more and more chatgpt.
One of my friends is a total chatgpt convert but I personally have found it hard to get good responses out of it
I find ChatGPT (the free version, 3.5, which cannot search the internet) acceptable when accuracy is of no concern. Coding, cooking, creative writing, things like that.
But it is so good at making things up, that's hard to spot when you don't already know the answer. So when I want a fact based answer, ideally with sources attached, I turn to Bing AI or Perplexity.

Oh I totally forgot, I have ecosia on my phone, it's good too
I used google a lot, I've also found connectedpapers.com is a fun tool (but the freemium part is annoying)
