FYI when I tried Kagi's Quick Answer out of curiosity, even that gave me a dictionary definition for "disregard". That being the case, I'd trust it about as much as I trust Google's AI overviews (which is to mean "not at all"). It just doesn't show up for me unless I prompt it.

FWIW just searching Kagi (the way someone searched Google here) yields a dictionary definition "provided by WordsAPI". So it's actually

  • trustworthy
  • predictable
  • fast
  • energy-efficient

You can't say any of those things about AI.

Normally, yes. That always seems to be one of the results.

I specifically forced it to do a quick answer, and it still gave me a definition. Interestingly, for "disregard", it also covered a bit about the Google nonsense results after defining the word.
