    The best part of this is that every search you run has the same environmental impact as clearcutting the Amazon

    What are benefits of using openai search when we already have Kagi that is much more privacy a friendly, is ads free and provides the same functionality?

        It’s wild that they are not breaking even with these prices. I’ve had an annual subscription since January and made nearly 5000 searches. Extrapolating to a year, I will have been paying about $0.17 per search. If that would go to the electricity bill then it corresponds to about 1 kWh of energy, enough to run a 50-watt laptop PC for 20 hours.

        My question was about benefits of openai search compared to kagi search. How is this link related to my question?

          The linked post goes into detail about why the author views Kagi as not privacy oriented, and that in the author’s opinion Kagi is overly focused on AI. (And was originally started as an AI company)

            And that is very strange for me. Under the news about AI-search from OpenAI I asked about comparison with AI-search from Kagi, but got a lot of downvotes and a link to the post where the author express his negative opinion about AI.

      I’m intrigued by Kagi and maybe I’ll try it. I like the business model of subscription instead of being the product. I don’t mind paying for my privacy. It’s not FOSS though, so we may never know if they’re not reselling our data.
