@Cheeseness @aral they have some nice features and I tried switching to it full-time, but for one the performance and quality of results is not really there right now (forgivable) but they also started incorporating Aishit into their search :/

peacememories (peacememories@chaos.social)'s status on Friday, 24-May-2024 22:07:27 JST peacememories @Cheeseness @aral I couldn't find any mention on their website as well, but the summarization feature made me suspicious, so I dove into the code: https://github.com/StractOrg/stract/blob/e74978c5bc1570e10e8f54e2a36a28461f576ead/crates/core/src/summarizer.rs
Of course, *providing a summarizer* is way less problematic than what other search providers have been doing. But the obvious inaccuracy of these summaries combined with the questionable ethics of anything ChatGPT are imo not compatible with the mission of an open, accurate, and fair search.
