Wasn't this a poll to determine how DDG will use AI in the future? I don't believe it was meant to be representative of the general population.

The pessimistic in me says it's only a marketing campaign and they won't change anything.They made the poll be shared by people on both camps and got "We're great because we let you choose" as a response after answering.

In this regard it makes perfect sense. I guess it was just me who asked for the general population answer.
