Chuck Darwin<p>DuckDuckGo Launches DuckAssist</p><p>We’re giving all users of DuckDuckGo’s browsing apps and browser extensions the first public look at DuckAssist, a new beta Instant Answer in our search results. </p><p>If you enter a question that can be answered by Wikipedia into our search box, <a href="https://c.im/tags/DuckAssist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DuckAssist</span></a> may appear and use <a href="https://c.im/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/natural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>natural</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>language</span></a> technology to anonymously generate a brief, <a href="https://c.im/tags/sourced" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sourced</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/summary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>summary</span></a> of what it finds in <a href="https://c.im/tags/Wikipedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wikipedia</span></a> — right above our regular private search results. </p><p>It’s completely free and private itself, with no sign-up required, and it’s available right now.</p><p>This is the first in a series of generative AI-assisted features we hope to roll out in the coming months. We wanted DuckAssist to be the first because we think it can immediately help users find answers to what they are looking for faster. And, if this DuckAssist trial goes well, we will roll it out to all DuckDuckGo search users in the coming weeks.</p><p><a href="https://spreadprivacy.com/duckassist-launch/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">spreadprivacy.com/duckassist-l</span><span class="invisible">aunch/</span></a></p>
