You can totally turn it off in a couple clicks or leave it on if you want it. Other tech companies take note, this is how you do it.
Yes
DDG’s AI is actually pretty good. I’ve used it several times and it’s always helpful. But I like that they let you turn it off.
Amazing. “[Company] spends lots of time and money on NEW! AMAZING! FUTURE! convenience of AI. [Company] also knows you hate it, will not force you to use it.”
If i can disabled it out of the way and it’s all good. I dont really care but others might. Better to have an options than none at all.

It’s really good, at least for my use cases. It’s one of the best ways I found to use AI and still have some privacy. People who want to remove it probably think it’s an always on thing, it’s not. If you don’t want it, don’t use it.
I really wish AI wasnt the “thing” we invented this decade and had invented something ACTUALLY useful and worthwile to society
It’s actually better than Google’s search results which are SEO spam
That is true
AI has numerous applications in the Sciences, and is incredibly useful and worthwhile when it is applied correctly.
The problem is the majority of people are uneducated or under-educated, so useful things like AI get turned into toys to appease Grown Babies.
LLMs are also feeding into the current state of unwillingness to think of a lot of people. People seem to just want an answer to their questions instead of an explanation. People just want a short version of “the truth” handed to them instead of making the effort to learn, research, and think critically.
While I do believe in the usefulness of AI and the advantages it possesses, but I also think it’s very dangerous in the modern age of “information consumerism”. We should teach kids about AI but also encourage critical thinking and problem solving instead of depending on LLMs to solve our problems for us. At the end LLMs are just machines that guesses what the next word would be according to its training dataset and some sophisticated algorithms for logical “reasoning” and mathematical computions (optional).
