In short

Internet can be a treasure of knowledge, but recently, it is feeling more like an overflow junk drawer, especially when it comes to disorganized search results with suspected AI-borne materials. Now, DuckDuckgo wants to help you clean things. Privacy-First browser and search engine have unveiled a new feature for the purpose of cutting through noise. The new feature is a filter designed to reduce the floods of AI-borne images that are crawling in your discoveries.
DuckDuckgo can filter AI-borne images in just one click
From this week, the users will see a new dropdown option with “AI Images” labeled when using the image search of DuckDuckgo. From here, you can choose whether you want to see an AI-borne scene. It is a small tweet, but possibly a powerful for those who were tired through supernatural AI rendering, especially when looking for something simple as a real picture of a child’s peacock.
DuckDuckgo chose Baby Peacock strategically to showcase the feature on X Aka Twitter. It refers to one of the more famous cases of dirty AI material online: when searching for peacocks on Google will mostly show strange, clear computer-related images instead of the actual photos of birds. While Google has made some improvements since then, AI-images still often appear in search results, which will prefer more than many users.
The new filter of DuckDuckgo will not be able to catch everything, after all, many AI images are designed to look hyper-deserved, but it depends on ublockorigin’s open-source block lists such as strong, community-operated resources. This means that the filter is constantly updated to identify and flagged the most obvious criminals. The company says that this new control will significantly reduce the number of AI-made scenes in your results, making it easier to find real, man-made materials.
DuckDuckgo launches scam blocker tool
But this is not the only upgrade from Dakdakgo this week. The company has also expanded its scam blocker tool, which is basically designed to close fishing efforts and malware. Now, it provides protection against a wide range of digital nastiz, including fake online shops, scam survey sites, shady cryptocurrency exchanges, and those annoying “your device is infected” skareware pop-up.
If you have to click on a suspicious link, the tool will prevent the site from completely loading. Instead, it gives a warning, which makes you know that the page has been flagged to hand over cash to users, buy fake goods or to try to install malicious software. From there, you can get out safely without loading the page anytime.
Unlike the similar devices used in other browsers, the scam of Dakdukgo does not rely on the technique of blocker Google and does not track your browsing behavior. This security company receives the updated list of malicious malicious sites known every 20 minutes through Natakraft, stores them locally on their device, and checks in real time-without sending the data back to any server.
The scam inhibitor is independent and is capable by default in DuckDuckgo’s desktop browser and web extension. For those paying for DuckDuckgo’s privacy pro subscription (price of $ 10/month), security also extends to other browsers you use.
Overall, these updates indicate continuous commitment to Dakdukgo’s internet cleaner, safe, and very less strangely to keep AI-well.
