    Why should tax dollars be funneled from one AI-focused company to another?

    Especially this one.

    If ads on school computers are a problem, great, let’s just drop the whole internet from them.

      For exactly the reason I said.

      I mean yah, not allowing kids access to the internet at all for school Isn’t a terrible idea. Certainly one worth exploring at least. But failing that, minimizing ads online is a good step in that direction.

        You didn’t provide a reason to give this specific AI company money. You just said public schools should shuttle money to private companies in general.

        I’m asking about why this specific one.

          The reason I gave was, schools shouldn’t use services that have ads.

          Kagi is the only ad free search provider.
