I mean, the poll was like as not a publicity stunt, to draw attention to the fact DDG is not doing AI. All the same, the fact they are making “no AI” a selling point is noteworthy.
EDIT: I stand corrected – apparently DDG does do AI presently. Hopefully they’re serious about reconsidering that, then.
I still get a bunch of AI bullshit unless I go out of my way. Also I swear they keep reactivating it as much as google when you opt out (or select ddg no ai as your search engine in Firefox and still see that garbage).
I hope they learn their lesson from their own poll.
It’ll be a cold day in hell when AI-horny suits learn the lesson that people don’t want AI
I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt for now.

They are, unless you opt out.
Thanks for the correction! I updated my comment to mention it.

Thanks for the correction, I was indeed wrong about that. I updated my comment accordingly.
