According to Google's CEO AI is more important to humanity than fire. AI is supposed to help humanity by enriching billionares spamming more intrusive ads
- Cute of you to assume that they include the peasants in this "humanity"
Lmao one reason I allowed those suckers in ublock was because I realized there were less ads and less bullshit copypasted listicles or whatever, now back it goes behind that cosmetic filter
Time to sign up for Kagi
- Kagi is rolling out more AI features and I cancelled my subscription after a year. I didn't want my support going towards all the unasked for and unnecessary AI, I jist wanted private search and was willing to pay for that.

  Edit: Unless you're looking for AI, then maybe Kagi makes sense to pay for
  
  So your source for this "drama" is one random person on Lemmy linking to a one random person's blog?
