Comment on Amazon’s AI ‘Banana Fish’ Dubs Are Hilariously, Inexcusably Bad
Mercuri@ani.social 1 week agoThe results were wrong
Yes… maybe I should have emphasized that the SEARCH results were wrong. And have you used Google lately? It forces the AI on you. You can’t turn that shit off. At least not easily.
But yeah, apparently if I had asked Bing it seems that it would have gotten it. Who would’ve thought that Bing would now be better than Google? But even Bing forces Copilot on you.
So please, oh master of internet searching, what search engine doesn’t force AI on you? I guess I could pretend it’s 1999 and use Lycos…

Dude, ever hear of Duck Duck Go? It’s a more privacy focused search engine that you can turn off any AI summaries with one click. It uses Bings DB but its own interface.

Oh snaps, I forgot that existed, mostly because it used to suck. But if Bing’s better than Google now…
I’m glad I asked and sorry for being such an ass. Well, mostly sorry ;)

If Bing’s database isn’t good enough for you, Startpage supposedly uses Google’s database and doesn’t shoehorn AI into the results. You’ll want an adblocker, though. (My usual order of query is Duckduckgo, then Startpage, then Mojeek if the other two didn’t find anything useful.)
