If you intend to prompt #Mistral Small 3 about the Q of #StarTrek; Don't!

At least the #LLM on Duck.ai #DuckDuckGo get's the season and episode numbers wrong - Voyager's Q2 is neither S03E14, nor is it S06E14 - it's S07E19!

Folk, there’s an A/B test or a progressive rollout of a #AI filter on #DuckDuckGo image search.

It asks if you want to include AI generated pics in the results, and it’s on by default.

Switch it off.

Got this on Firefox Android but not on Firefix desktop.

DuckDuckGo hat einen „Scam Blocker“ eingeführt. Eine neue Funktion, die Nutzer aktiv vor bekannten Betrugsseiten schützt, noch bevor sie geladen werden. Der integrierte Betrugsblocker des DuckDuckGo-Browsers schützt dich vor Phishing-Websites, Malware und anderen gängigen Online-Betrugsmaschen. Er ist standardmäßig aktiviert, sodass du sofort nach dem Öffnen des Browsers geschützt bist.

A workaround is to search with #Disenshittified google instead, via: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14
Or, better still, use #duckduckgo 🧐

@lowyat 👏 Bravo #duckduckgo 🐣🏆
@blogdiva Damn straight: #FuckFuckNO. I just uninstalled #DuckDuckGo from all of my devices. Despite known serious problems, I'd rather rely (until I find something clearly better) on Mozilla Firefox, or even Google Chrome, than on a scuzzy venture-capital-funded startup that plays games like "Our regular system is 'down' but you can use our LLM-based AI". To the bottom of hell with that.

I was disturbed/pissed off by the AI options, too. I use their "Cloud Save" settings to standardize settings across phone/computers & am able to disable all of the AI cruft there. For now, it's a tolerable solution. For me.

(I assume you may already know this feature. But, I needed the screenshot for something else & your comment reminded me. 😀 )
