Do you think it really doesn't train on your data?

I've been using it and it looks good so far, I just ask simple questions and never let the context get too big.

It's good that it doesn't require login, just open and ask something.

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.

Good news: "AI" doesn't actually exist.

[-] MolochHorridus@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 hours ago

True, but nowadays, and for foreseeable future, AI means what the tech bros mean by 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...)

I switched entirely after they renamed their app to AI. Hopefully that helps even more.

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

KISS settings > Search settings > Add web search provider

I'm talking about the duck.ai not the integrated AI on search results, I don't use that one, I let it disabled.
