How long should breastfeeding last?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

WHO (World Health Organization) and AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) recommend exclusively breastfeeding for 6 months, then continuing alongside solid foods for at least the first year. Extending breastfeeding to age 2 and beyond is also considered healthy. The important thing is not a specific end date but meeting both your baby's needs and your own comfort.
