It’s definitely not Kagi’s fault. The AI slop is simply taking effect and I feel sorry for them. I never expected them to match Google’s quality, but I was impressed with how close it was when I used it a few years ago.
Buried under a lot of complaints about fairness, Kagi mentions they are still using Google search results, just without authorization.
> Because direct licensing isn't available to us on compatible terms, we - like many others - use third-party API providers for SERP-style results (SERP meaning search engine results page).
So in one sense, yes, Kagi isn't quite Google, but in another sense, it very much still is.
