I should be able to go into my settings and just say “don’t ever show me AI search results unless I ask, which doesn’t mean using a normal, commonplace punctuation mark”.
It’s very frustrating that “turn it off” is a fucking afterthought to “turn it on” for a service I pay for.

- sshine 2y ago> “turn it off” is a fucking afterthought to “turn it on” Kagi is an AI-oriented company from the start, not an “… and AI!” gimmick. AI-curated search results are believed to eventually replace normal search results. If I just want a factoid on a website, I might as well have a program crawl and scan for it. If I want the summary and I don’t bother reading the long version, I might as well have a program crawl and summarise. If I want specific details in a big document, and I am not familiar with the wording to look for, I might as well prompt. It’s like complaining about shellfish at a seafood restaurant. :-)
- wpm 2y agoKagi was not, to my memory, positioned this way early on when I started paying for it. It was "search but not dogshit because we're not being sponsored by the search results". If I want a factoid on a website, I want to see it with my own eyes, not filtered through some non-deterministic shit machine that might tell me the right answer. To each their own but me getting what I want doesn't get in your way at all, so we should both be able to use Kagi the way we want to.
