the introduction of so-called "AI" into products whose users obviously and definitely Do Not Want It, such as ecosia or at mozilla, exemplifies the sheer soullessness of the nonprofit industrial complex. evidently the people making decisions at ecosia don't actually care about the environment, or being sustainable, or planting trees (which tbh is a very simplistic solution to a complex problem to begin with). No, to them ecosia is just a step on their career path like any other, and they're clearly more focused on being able to write "spearheaded introduction of AI at [company]" in their resume than they are on making good decisions that actually further the goals the nonprofit is ostensibly for.

The Nonprofit is a monument to the failures of liberalism

@roadblock161_ I gave up on Ecosia when they *repeatedly* moaned about me using adblockers (as its only rebranded Bing search anyway, same as DuckDuckGo)

@roadblock161_ I recently switched to Ecosia because they are less US-American than Duck Duck Go. Then they did a survey about what services one would be willing to pay in a Ecosia Premium Product and half of their ideas where AI.
Now I'm back to Duck Duck Go. At least on there I can turn off the AI. (On Ecosia even on the no-AI-Setting I needed to use my Ad-Blocker to get rid of the last AI-Button)

@roadblock161_ I wrote a formal complaint about it to them and they responded by saying their AI is greener than the other ones and they have no plans in switching it off. So I told them I would change to a different provider that doesn't use ethically dodgy, environmentally destructive AI technology.

@Research_FTW yup, greener as in "we tinted this site and the AI button green". @roadblock161_
