Kagi made search useful again, and their genAI stuff can be easily ignored. Best of both worlds -- it remains useful for people like myself who don't want genAI involved, but there's genAI stuff for people who like that sort of thing.
That said, if their genAI stuff gets to be too hard to ignore, then I'd stop using or praising Kagi.
That this is about news also makes it less problematic for me. I just won't see it at all, since I don't go to Kagi for news in the first place.
