Not Google or Bing! This search engine lets you block AI images in search results

Whether we like it or not, artificial intelligence has quickly become a part of our lives. While the technology powers many helpful features, it has also filled our timelines with AI-generated images and videos. This is where DuckDuckGo’s new feature comes in. The privacy-focused search engine now lets users choose how much AI they want in their lives by offering the option to hide AI-generated images in search results.

However, the feature isn’t enabled by default. Users will need to manually go into the search menu to change the filters if they want to reduce the number of AI-generated images they see. On the DuckDuckGo website, a new “AI Images” option now appears in the search menu. By default, it is set to ‘Show’, but users can manually click on the menu and set it to ‘Hide’ to significantly reduce AI-generated images in search results.
