@vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector Yeah it's not great. Afaik some browsers are offering it as a default search engine? I heard librewolf is in talks about adding it as a default option.
@lexfeathers @IntrepidVector You mean lite.duckduckgo.com as default search engine? I can confirm that Librewolf does offer that, I switched to Librewolf recently over the Firefox LLM stuff and set the default engine to lite.duckduckgo.com

@lexfeathers "We don't all feel the same about AI"
Kinda... kinda looks like we do?

@vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector I mean noai.duckduckgo

@IntrepidVector @lexfeathers I see... Not really a choice if you clear cookies regularly and it defaults to it turned on and not to it turned off... I avoid it by going to https://lite.duckduckgo.com, the version without JavaScripts and without LLMs, but it doesn't have picture search, so for picture search I instead have to remember to type in https://noai.duckduckgo.com, which is somewhat annoying...
@vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector @lexfeathers it's a bit annoying to do it for each browser across devices but you can add and set the noai version as the default search engine

@lexfeathers Just clicked the funny "No" button.

@vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector I mean noai.duckduckgo
@lexfeathers @vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector you can set it up as a custom search engine and then select it by default, that way all searches go to noai search. Even those from the address bar.
Instructions below for FireFox and forks thereof.

@lexfeathers Has the question be created by AI? - Bc I strongly advocate using ai to assist doctors with finding good diagnoses but I strongly oppose using ai to creat dumb pictures.

@lexfeathers It says that "we dont all feel the same way about AI" on the results page which is a statement that the results flatly contradict

@lexfeathers "Big Tech doesn't care if you want AI or not. They should.", written by the same company who added "AI" overview to their search without asking us...
I wonder what they'll do with the results, whether it'll make them reconsider it or not
@vaporeon_ @lexfeathers you vote no and they’re like ‘buuuut are you sure?’ so i rather doubt they’ll be taking it to heart lol

@lexfeathers I can’t help but think somehow they’re hoping this serves some sort of advertising purpose.

@lexfeathers It’s even steeper now.
Of course:
“Maybe the users are ri-“
*someone who looks like Jensen Huang in groucho glasses slides them a bulging envelope*
(oddly cadenced generated voice) “-wrong. It is the users who are wrong, and are denying the agentic paradigm of the glorious AGI future. We must force it into their bodily orifices as they kick and scream. It is what it is.”
*the badly disguised man in the leather jacket smiles broadly and exits*
