"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.

You'd probably get a closer split with the general population, but for a search engine mainly used by privacy-conscious people and those wanting to get away from Google's bullshit, it makes sense.
Honestly, it was probably an ad in disguise. You want AI? We've got it! Don't want that bullshit? That's cool, we're not gonna shove it down your throat.
An ad that actually tells you some info after asking for info is honestly refreshing
But are you willing to click yes to find out?
They link to the “yes ai” and “no ai” versions either way you vote, just presented differently.
It's a little ironic because all the searches just go through Microslop's bullshit instead. Yes, DuckDuckGo is just Bing wearing a duck hat.
I did not know that, so no better than startpage, a netherlands based privacy minded proxy for google?
Better a proxy for Bing than Bing itself
