Right now if you search for “country in Africa that starts with the letter K”:
-
DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya.
-
Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same.
This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke:
“There are no countries in Africa that start with K.” “What about Kenya?” “Kenya suck deez nuts?”

Bing has been better for a while now.
I use Bing more frequently than Google and at this point it is better. Google’s baseline algorithm is better than Bing’s but Google targets its search results as well as its ads, which fucks up the results. I know Bing has targeted ads but it either doesn’t target its search results or does so more subtly, making more user-friendly at this point.
