    70k+ is a good representation of the users. Plenty of data points they can extrapolate and all of them point to scrapping AI. Good. Save some money and skip the slop trough.

      It’s not a survey. It’s an ad. It’s an ad for noai.duckduckgo.com. The fact that we’re thinking it and talking about it means it was a good ad. But it’s just an ad. The numbers are entirely meaningless.

      Nothing about this ad says that they are scrapping AI. They aren’t. They still provide AI by default. This is a way for the end user to opt out of that default.

        I answered yes to see what happened. It tells me “Thanks for voting — You’re into AI. With DuckDuckGo, you can use it privately. Try Duck.ai

        No idea where they’re going to take it from here, just wanted to provide some insight on the other option.
