I turned this garbage off right away.
DuckDuckGo says AI answers are out of beta and now get info from across the web, not just Wikipedia; setting AI answers to “often” shows them ~20% of the time.

I love this feature. Doesn’t take up too much screen real-estate. You can scroll right past it when it isn’t good. But when it’s good, it’s actually useful.

The goal of all of this AI garbage is to remove all listing of website sources and you just look at the AI slop. The search engines become the only thing you see and you no longer see the websites the information is stolen from. It is truly abusive. Do not support this trash.

Cool.
And the best part is, if I set it to never I get the websites I was actually looking for.
