    No, the act of a company shoving something bad down people’s throats does not prove it’s what they wanted. You should know this.

    We have polls that have calculated people’s sentiment. They are sick of AI .

      Ok, if people hate AI so much, you’ll see it being gone soon. No company would want to spend money keeping an useless feature, principally DDG, which is no monopoly.

      Also, that poll is about Americans, I don’t give a shit what Americans think.

        That’s not how capitalism works. If you genuinely believe in the Invisible Hand Of The Market, you shouldn’t.

        And you should know better: just days ago , you were telling people capitalism, not AI, was the real villain, which makes your tone here come across as trollish.

          This isn’t really about the invisible hand of the market, I was talking about a single company. It costs money to keep those models up, which DDG itself hosts. If we were taking about Google, for example, then I could see the argument since it is a monopoly and my line of reasoning wouldn’t work.

          I’m not trying to be troll as you accuse, I’m just trying to think from different perspectives and have something less sensitive to ideology.

          We don’t find out the truth by agreeing with everything that panders to our beliefs.

            lol.

            if you think people aren’t sick of this trash, you’re leading a very sheltered life and need to get outside and speak with humans, not just ask your llm what to think.
