@mcc I am also not a fan of AI, the only upside of AI i noticed is when implemented good - like say Kagi - it shortens my search for a very specific topics. Like proper tire pressure on a 40 year old camper offered in 8 flavours and 2 countries only ... 40 years ago. Manually searching bits of information about it on 200 pages, forums and FB groups takes years. Google summarises it to a 100% bullshit all wrong AI slop. Kagi says might be this <reference 1> might be that <ref2> Check it yourself.
