@Some_Emo_Chick@mastodon.social Shouldn't the pilot be focused on making sure the flight is safe. If it's dangerous to use your phone while taking ground transit, it's certainly dangerous in the sky!

@paco@infosec.exchange I don’t understand why operating system developers aren’t required to implement age verification. Apple, Microsoft, and Google could coordinate a standard that passes age group data to websites without revealing identities. It makes no sense for every app or site to handle this alone. Linux and Firefox users could use Google’s web service linked to their accounts. Problem solved. Everyone wins. Only these companies have the security scale to manage threats in real time.

@ottaross@mastodon.social I think this is a step in the right direction. There is some demand for AI products that promise more privacy.

Assuming that DuckDuckGo is running their own LLM or even paying OpenAI or similar for the API and assuming that OpenAI or whoever acts in good-faith and doesn't save chat contents and assuming DuckDuckGo doesn't share information about you it's a nice to have feature.

This does however mean sharing every search query to an AI company which is concerning. Google already has your search query so adding an AI answer doesn't share your data with anyone, but for DuckDuckGo this is a transfer of personal information which is a biger issue.

Maybe a better alternative would for it to be opt-in and you'll be prompted at the top of your first search to "Enable AI Features" or "No, don't ask me again (you can always change in settings."
