yeah i noticed yesterday duckduckgo browser has ai now
DDG lets you turn it off completely fwiw
oh nice
Its not surprising. Duckduckgo search has ai.
Which- why? Who’s using ddg without understanding how to use a search engine or recognizing the constant AI hallucinations?
The short answer is employees and family members.
Someone who manages tech for other users might configure ddg as default search. I guess people at ddg are concerned that this type of user might be resistant to using ddg unless it has zero-click results.
