@lexfeathers "We don't all feel the same about AI"
Kinda... kinda looks like we do?
@notthatdelta @lexfeathers trend is strengthening at over 5x the sample size lol

The numbers keep going up, but the ratio stays the same. <inflected with a McConnaghy drawl>
-
@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
@Montaagge @lexfeathers I guess they’re team “no means yes”?

@lexfeathers its the same story with that mozilla poll, AI doesnt mean jack, its so many things and some are not evil -

@lexfeathers
In what context? That's a meaningless question on it's own. -
@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.

@skylark13 @lexfeathers @vaporeon_ @IntrepidVector yup. this is the way.
-
@lexfeathers Bad framing on Duckduckgo's part.
The problem is the people, not the computer programs. I am "no" to tech oligarchs running everything and exploiting all of us.
Machine learning could have positive uses, but not while they are controlling it.
@lauerhahn @lexfeathers Well, at this point one can argue that AI and Machine Learning are mostly independent terms, given how effective marking by large tech companies have destroyed any meaning of "AI".

I don't think it's that simple.
AI for cancer research?
Absolutely. I'm on board.
AI in a search engine provided 'free' by a corporation that exploits its users?
Nope.

@lexfeathers The thing is, I too dislike it typically but I still make use of genAI in the case of not finding any clues with ordinary search engine queries in hope to find references or other mentions.

@lexfeathers we need a "both".
-
@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 after voting "no", I was offered a link to "see what an AI internet would look like", which turned out to be an advertisement for "Duck AI", so… not excited

Kinda... kinda looks like we do?
@notthatdelta @lexfeathers some amount of selection bias can be assumed, but still, heck
