Has skipping the manual research step made your work feel less thorough?

Lately I’ve been catching myself trusting instant AI summaries without looking at where the data came from. The problem is that when someone asks me to explain the logic behind a decision I realize I don't fully understand the underlying sources. Now I try to create a quick folder of verified links before asking for a summary just so I have context. How do you keep yourself from getting lazy with background research when summarizing tools are so fast?
