Kagi
so much this. its summary option also lets me avoid any ad infested page. also great for searching videos and relevant stack overflow results.
Gotta say, Kagi has been great. It's helped me a lot in work just by Being able to prioritise search Results and rank certain sites higher
Kagi has an AI search option which IIRC is on by default -- or at least was at one point -- where it'll try to also synthesize an answer and stick it in a box with the results, but you can just turn it off in your preferences. I have it off.
There may be a day when we have AI assistants that are so good that their summaries are better than looking at the original source, but I'd put a high bar on that, and think that we've got a way to go.
It’s off by default, but activated when you end your search query with a question mark. That option can be turned off.
