With the news that Google’s search engine completely switching over to AI, is there anything out there that can replace it? DuckDuckGo’s results have been pretty awful recently, and when I pulled up Yandex the only option it gave me was to use their AI search.

https://www.metacrawler.com/
https://www.mojeek.com/
https://www.kagi.com/

That's all I could find negative

I haven't broken and paid for Kagi yet (or done the free trial) but between metacrawler and mojeek, mojeek gave me better results.

kagi has ai, it's just not the default result, it's a button you can click on top of your results, or it automatically answers with ai if you put a question mark in your search
