You can tell most people don't read the article before they vote. Ddg just added a way to turn on or off ai results by default.
What article? This just links to the separate search engine experience.
I think they mean, the ycombinator post. It's linked in the post here on lemmy:

I think basically what's happened is that someone stumbled into the DDG url with AI turned off (https://noai.duckduckgo.com/), seen the thing that says "we've turned off AI answers" and misunderstood whats happened.
Reading takes time. I wanna doomscroll /s.
