I keep Wikipedia results at the top in my results because I personally use it a decent amount. If I don’t end the query in a ‘?’ no ai is used, and I can use ai after the fact with the ‘quick answer’ button, but as you can see nothing is happening without me explicitly telling it to. If you dig into kagi.com/assistant you can pick from a variety of models and set up default prompt, etc. There’s nothing aggressive IMO about their implementation, and if these companies folded tomorrow the other functions of the search engine wouldn’t be impacted.
Kagi is pretty decent, and other search engines piss me off now when I use them.
I use AI every time I google something. I don’t want to…it just won’t go away.
Might I suggest Kagi
The ai company that sort of pivoted to search but doesn’t offer any tiers without ai?
They have their… summarizer? But that’s seperate from the search, so…
