Very rarely on purpose. Last time I willingly used a chatbot for something was like ~7 months ago IIRC. Sometimes I am searching random things up in incognito (so it doesn't pollute my browsing history) and DuckDuckGo shows the stupid AI overview because of course, in incognito it's not gonna know that I specifically disabled their "AI" features. It should be opt-in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, they're kinda useful by themselves, but in a search engine? Sure, it can filter results or whatever, but it's just easier for me to go to a website I know and look for the info there.
Also, I don't like chatbots because usually I just want to search one thing and leave - and to me, it doesn't feel like that's what they were designed for. They're meant for "conversation" but I don't want to talk to a bot. There are, of course, a plethora of other reasons why I don't like LLMs, which I won't be getting into in this reply.
Thanks! It's the bookmarlet URL, didn't know that existed.
