Right now if you search for “country in Africa that starts with the letter K”:
-
DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya.
-
Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same.
This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke:
“There are no countries in Africa that start with K.” “What about Kenya?” “Kenya suck deez nuts?”
Cool thing about kagi though. I added emergent mind to my blocked domains list, and now the quick answer displays the proper answer. Still not ideal but better than no options at all to fix it
The internet really is unusable without some way to block user/sites/etc… That’s Kagi’s single greatest feature.
Yeah I actually just found that functionality myself today when I was looking at how I could get rid of the very same emergent mind result.
However, it seems that my quick answer got cached, at least for a while, so it stayed the same even if the results now were different.
