DuckDuckGo's AI-free search saw nearly 28% more visits in the week following Google's insistence that people love AI mode. Is anyone surprised by this result?

@nixCraft IMHO

personally I like AI mode, but there should be a option to turn it off for people who don't like AI

And since, yk, Google uses AI for even their definitions

Some guy searched "stop" and it said the meaning was

"Ok I'll stop"
