The fact that a huge amount uf parameters may lead to worse hallucinations is something I didn't think of. Would this somewhat imply that DeepSeek V4 flash should be less prone to these issues?

You can block DoH by blacklisting their domains (which is what ControlD and NextDNS do, by the way).

Inbuilt ad blockers aren't affected by whatever change Google may do to the extension ecosystem.

Ironically, I just ordered a hardcopy of "Python Crash Course". I want to learn it for personal use and prefer to have the book at hand, rather than in PDF/electronic format. And no, I'm not letting AI or LLMs do the job for me: I prefer (rally: need) my brain to stay active.

Thanks. Not a fan of Google, TBH... By the way, you're right, I'd prefer a credit-based solution. I've been reading about together.ai. Do you happen to knos how is it, by any chance?

I'm just using Evolution. Switched from Thunderbird a few weeks ago. So far, so good.

I've never user Google or DDG assistants, tbh. My use for Kagi's assistant is for stuff related to work. I'm a university prof., so it "saves me a bit of time" while checking for errors in assignments, clarify concepts to explain to students and so on. I almost never use it to search for stuff.

Yeah, that reply is a mildly infuriating, in view of what they're planning.

Well, no... I use maybe 1/5 to 1/3 of may month allowance on Assistant. It's nice to have. And I subscribed to Kagi also because of it. So, the Assistant going away would mean my expensive Duo subscription going away as well.

Again, right now the assistant is entirely optional. Oh, summarizer and translate are base on the same models, by the way.

That's why I don't think anybody is going to pay for the Assistant alone.

Friendly reminder that you're not forced to use it. "I despise soccer, so soccer should disappear".

Well, good for you, I guess. But for the rest of us who use the Assistant this would be a net downgrade, AKA paying the same for less.
