If you append ? to the end of a query, kagi runs the query through an llm that cites its sources. It very rarely hallucinates at this point, but I still click through to check.

I keep trying chatgpt style products, but rarely reach for them because I don’t really have a concrete use case for them. I use ? all the time, code completion at work and regularly generate images. Generic chat can do those things but is never as good as specialized tools I have access to.

My guess is that purpose-built specialized expert AIs are going to end up being more useful than the “everything” products like the chatgpt UI, but time will tell, I guess.

Is the AI search part of the normal search plan or charged extra? Because atm, I'm still using Perplexity on a trial plan, but would like to try Kagi if it did the same, but used a better underlying search engine.

I mean, I used to search on Google for specific stackoverflow posts. I have never done that since I started using chatgpt etc.

I have no numbers but I bet my # of searches/day went down drastically because of that alone.
