People don't want AI forced on them. DuckDuckGo lets you choose.
The result? Since Google's AI overhaul, our U.S. installs peaked yesterday at 76% above the pre-announcement average, and we broke our single-day search record. 🔥
It's not a blip, it's a movement. Fire Google.

@DuckDuckGo can filter AI-generated images in its searches. Go to settings (gear icon) and "All search settings". I love this. Great job ! #ai #searchengine #duckduckgo #google #bing #yahoo #aifilter

No force feeding AI over here. With us, you choose if and how AI shows up.
Tl;dr 👉 Break up with Google

Google says AI will now dominate its search experience. When we tested vague queries that might require some digging, the chatbot tried to strike up a personal conversation instead 🤡
