r/trueantiAI

Disclaimer: I am not a certified tech nerd. I'm just absolutely frustrated with AI being forced into everything and trying to find an alternative.

A while ago I ditched google and chrome due to the enshittyfication via AI summaries. Switched to Vivaldi as default browser but can't find a reliable search engine that's anti-ai and not just "you can switch it off (we may or may not still generate an AI response that just isn't displayed to you)".

I'm using Ecosia currently and I've heard it used to be without any AI bullshit but apparently folded because now there's an AI chatbot option (which, in my opinion, contradicts their objective of not destroying the environment). AI results are the next tab in search results (where I would usually expect images which has lead to me almost clicking it by mistake).

I tried Mojeek for a while but either I don't know how to use it or it's just not too good at it's job. Image search is basically useless. Additionally it flags any searches in ukrainian as error 403 - Forbidden ("Your network appears to be sending automated queries so we can't process your search at this time") (no it's not that it doesn't work for non-English at all, searches in Polish are fine)(I usually use English on the web anyway, but forgive me for wanting to look up a recipe for a traditional dish from my home).

For now, I use Ecosia on my phone and Ecosia or Mojeek on laptop.

Are there any anti-AI search engines?

My director/vice president are questioning myself and colleagues on our plans to use AI in our corporate roles.

I have no plans to use AI, I despise it. I would like to live on a clean planet.

I’m about to say as much, and hit them with a bunch of sustainability facts. Any thoughts?

recently i came across an AI singer called Ngiyaphila and there are people in the comments who are genuinely supporting it

the channel has 50 thousand subscribers

I need lots of help to flood this channel with comments exposing that its AI

and any other music channels with AI music in them
