   Brave Search is way better than other search engines.

   In contrast to other "private" search engines (except for Presearch and SearX), it doesn't have trackers, or not nearly as many. This information can be verified by installing uBlock Origin and ClearURLs, which detect 0 and 2 trackers respectively, against for example DuckDuckGo's nearly 10 and 19. Other alternatives are SearX (No trackers AT ALL, still kinda user-friendly) and Presearch (A bit easier to use but a tiny bit worse for privacy, it has 1 more tracking element).

   🏁 Competitors: DuckDuckGo, Mojeek, StartPage, Presearch, Searx, Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ecosia, Ask.com, Qwant

   👍 Pros:    Good search results|Not too many trackers|Not buggy|Easy to use

   👎 Cons:    Has 2 tracking url elements

  Pretty cool! I use Brave Search (https://search.brave.com) and it too got AI results a few months ago. They're quite helpful! - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Are my searches tracked by google if I us google seach in Brave?

  Best way to protect yourself from that is to use other search engines that do not track you (I really like Brave Search, but if you want Google results without tracking try Startpage). Source: 6 months ago

• Best resources to get started?

  Poe, is a tool that allows you to try lots of different LLMs like ChatGPT, Anthropic, LLama and more. It is a great sandbox to get started and see the difference in the tools. Note; not all the interface/features are available all the time. In ChatGPT 4.0 ability to search the web or generate an image from in-line hasn't yet been updated. Still, it's not a bad tool to try everything. [via Poe]. Source: 6 months ago

• On the Decline in Quality of CharacterAI: A Technical Perspective

  Now, the placement of the "Definition (Advanced)" section is less clear. Given its large size (up to 32000 characters), it's doubtful that it's part of the initial prompt. It's more likely that it's maintained as a separate reference knowledge base. This is a feature that other AI chatbots, like Poe's bots, can also utilize. You can visit the Poe website here to check it out. Source: 6 months ago

• The best free ChatGPT alternatives

  I saw a post earlier this week saying that they feel the outputs from ChatGPT have been declining, and a lot of people agreed. There are a good amount of quality AI chat alternatives out there besides ChatGPT and some even offer GPT-4 for free! Here's a list of alternative chatbots to try out (I've tried all of these not some bs list): Perplexity: "The first conversational search engine" (GPT-3.5 Free / GPT-4... Source: 11 months ago

• ChatGPT Plus or ChatGPT API

  Is poe.com completely free? Is there an API access? I haven't looked much into it but it feels like it's just a relay service to openai? Source: about 1 year ago
