User ditches Google Search for AI alternatives, switches from Perplexity to Mistral

A user has decided to stop using Google Search, citing its shift towards AI-generated summaries with a high rate of hallucinations and its departure from its original motto. The user is evaluating alternatives like Kagi, Qwant, and DuckDuckGo for general searches, noting that while Google still excels at providing link lists, these alternatives are being tested for their indexing speed and privacy features. Additionally, the user is switching from Perplexity for advanced AI search to Mistral's Vibe, though initial tests show Vibe also exhibits some inaccuracies. AI
