A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Stick to a small circle of trusted people and websites. Skip mainstream news. Small blogs, niche forums, and tiny YouTube channels are often more honest.
Avoid Google for discovery. It's not great anymore. Use DuckDuckGo, Qwant, or Yandex instead. For deeper but less precise results, try Mojeek or Marginalia. Google works okay only if you're searching within one site, like site:reddit.com.
Sometimes, searching in other languages helps find hidden gems with less junk. Use a translator if needed.
I went with Kagi. It costs some money, but they have a special deal with Google to get access to their API. It's basically their search results without the AI slop, ads and BS. It works just like Google worked back in the good, old days.
Let's see how long this will last. But I will enjoy it as long as I can.
Kagi also has a news section. I'm not entirely sure which sites they pull from, but on a first glance it looks more clean and less sloppy than the ones from the big players.
Edit: They explain how they aggregate those news here.
