I don’t want AI anywhere near my daily drivers. If I want to use AI it needs to be siloed and unable to access any of my data unless I explicitly feed something into it.
Hijacking your comment to remind others of https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ The more that is used, the faster DDG may remove AI from the main page. (Hopes and dreams...)
Neat, in IronFox, that is already one of the search providers to choose from to set as the default. I had to manually add it to KISS, bit it is working great
Great idea! Thanks for showing how to do it!
I switched entirely after they renamed their app to AI. Hopefully that helps even more.
👏 Thanks.
I'm talking about the duck.ai not the integrated AI on search results, I don't use that one, I let it disabled.
Good news: "AI" doesn't actually exist.
True, but nowadays, and for foreseeable future, AI means what the tech bros mean by it.
I'm real sorry! Not to be a complete ass. But the sooner people stop using the "daily driver" phrase the better! Oceans of cringe. Please, please delete this from your vocab! Its like throwing up in the mouth every time I see this.
This is a 'you' problem
What would ypu suggest they use instead?
