    The wealthy want AI to be treated as actual intelligence when it is just a machine that spits out the words that its owner allows.

        I just tried it with other active politicians (“Pelosi”) and it answered. Granted, it said there were no credible reports

        Why would it refuse to say anything if I search for Trump, but answer with another prominent politician who is in office?

      It can be a starting point since often it’s just copy and pasted from a website. Grab a few keywords and go.

          I second Kagi if you’re willing to pay for extra privacy and features. If you’re just looking for a free drop-in replacement, I still find DuckDuckGo to be the best non-Google daily driver.

          I’ve been enjoying Kagi. You pay a monthly fee (there’s a free trial) and get good search results. You can even tailor the results to prioritize or deprioritize various sites. For example, I told it to never show me anything from Pinterest.

    Kagi AI will answer

    Some psychiatrists and psychologists have speculated that Donald Trump may be exhibiting signs of dementia. These concerns have been raised by experts who point to his public appearances and statements as evidence of cognitive decline. Factors such as his age (nearly 80) and a family history of dementia have also been mentioned as contributing to these concerns

    Specifically, some have identified “four signs” of dementia that they believe Trump is showing. One of these signs mentioned is confabulation, which is described as “honest lying” or memory lapses, and is considered a potential indicator of dementia

    However, it is worth noting that one report indicated Trump was assessed for cognitive function, which was found to be normal. Despite this, questions about his mental acuity persist among some observers

    A tangent if I may: how do we convince people that moving around from service to service after they go sour, is normal for using the internet?

    Censorship, like in the article, is clearly a good reason to move on. But enshitification in general is usually the way this goes. I get that this is fatigue-making, especially for people that barely know how their phones work. So, does someone has a way to evangelize better services when the time inevitably comes?

      This is a great question.

      This is my way of life for a long time now. And I can’t comunicate well enough that this is how capital powers are kept in check by consumers. It is a necessity now more than ever that this should be the way for everyone.

      The fediverse is being constructed in a way that we will only need to jump instances and domains and not segregate ourselves from the rest. I’m technically not on Lemmy anymore. When lemm.ee shut down I jumped to piefed. But I’m still around. This is the novelty (which is more of a reclaim of the old internet tbh) that is missing from the larger web.

      I use several search engines, I have several emails etc etc To me this isn’t exhausting. It is liberaring. To not be tied down to a single suite or conglomerate.

      As to how to convince others as you asked… I think all the approaches are necessary. Informing, advocating and promoting or even hazing and mocking as some will surely do. All of them will play their part in the broadening awareness and bringing people out of stagnation and complacency.

      We need to show people a redundancy… that the way to move is to keep moving. That a quest for a fixed definitive ground is not only impossible but a mistake to begin with.

      As to the correct approach, like I said, all the approaches will be necessary in my opinion. Even the ones I dislike will motivate people in their respective in-groups.

    This brings up something that has been bothering me for awhile. It’s really been bothering me that when I look up an opinion Gemini will tell me whether my opinion is right or wrong. I knew it would be ripe for abuse.

    I got one for “how long has the president had dementia?”

    very funny for a search engine, I can see why it did this but it’s going like “nobody has dementia. JOE BOIDDEN HOWEVAH…”

    Trumps “tech bros” cannot keep the truth from the masses forever. The truth is slippery and always finds a way out, eventually. I hope that, in the near future, something is done about the power of subscribing and gross wealth accumulation for all of those “tech bros”. That power should always reside with the people although it’s currently in the hands of a bunch of adult middle-schoolers.

    Google search AI mode says “no information” but Gemini in the app says that “some Doctors have speculated” about signs of cognitive decline.
