How does Kagi know what is AI stuff? I don't see how they can 'just turn it off'

It's driven by community ratings.

so it is like humans vs robots started? robots ask humans questions to verify they are not robots. humans mark content as robot-generated to filter it out.

My first instinct is that users abuse it like they do any other report/downvote mechanism. They see something they just don't plain like, they report it as AI slop.

By "turn it off" I mostly mean that Kagi have their own AI driven tools available, but a toggle in your user settings disables it completely.

ie it's not forced down your throat, nor mysteriously/accidentally/etc turned back on occasionally
