    On DDG is “Search Assist” the same thing as “Duck.ai?” Must confess that the former can be extremely useful sometimes, as long as I check its references.

      I think the most notable feature of ddg ai is that its not invasive, and as someone else has said here it can actually be useful. AI is like everything, you need to decide when it can actually add value. If i’m searching for some linux command, ai is brilliant. If i’m doing reasearch i may use ai asking for all references and then i go and check the references using search feature. Sometimes i just use search.
