Chat & AI
Checking where an answer came from
Replies show the documents they read and the web pages they searched, so you can verify before you rely on them.
Step 1
Resources: the documents it read
When a reply drew on your documents, a Resources pill with a book icon sits under it. Press it to open the list of documents it used.

How relevant each one was
Each document shows a relevance score: green for a strong match, yellow for a partial one, grey for a weak one. Press a document to read the exact passage that was used.
Q3 revenue: 4.48m, up 12% year on year against a plan of 9%. EMEA contributed 61% of the growth.
Step 3
References: the web pages it searched
When the model searched the web, a References card appears beside the reply on a wide screen. Each entry is numbered with its title and site, and opens in a new tab.
Step 4
On a phone
On a narrow screen the same list sits under the reply as a References pill with a globe. Press it to open the list.
Step 5
Fold them away
The arrows at the top right of the card, Hide references, shrink it to a small globe button with the count. That choice applies to every reply and is remembered on this device until you press the globe again.
Step 6
When nothing shows
A reply answered from the conversation alone has no Resources or References. If you expected it to use a document, attach it or pick it from your library, and check the Effort level; Thorough reads more of long files.
