"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It has an opt in ai choice but you can choose to deactivate it
If you have to choose to deactivate it, then that's the opposite of opt-in
Except if you use noai.duckduckgo.com
Well, it's more like opt-out. The old duckduckgo is the ai version. The ai-free option lives on a subdomain called "noai".
Fair enough, I have used duckduckgo for a while but don't use the ai part.
Ahh, thanks. I've been using SearXNG so long and no AI is just.. the way it is.
