I used google for most of my life, for the past couple months I’ve been using brave search, but I still end up using google often because google images is far better than brave search images. I’m also worried that maybe brave search isn’t the best choice. What would you guys recommend?

Stop using search engines and start using ai. Especially ai that links to sources is much better than weeding out the heavily influenced search results. Using ai is like opening 10 search results finding the relevant sources and comparing them all to bother the information down to a digestible nugget.

I will when we have AI.

Do you know which AI to use?

Every time i tried it, it gave me wrong information or combined outdated information with current one

I’ve gotten pretty good results from Perplexity. The responses contain links to sources, Wikipedia style, which enables me to verify the answers in the AI generated response.
