Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

There's now a privacy-respecting offer on DDG, use the !ai bang to get to it.
To answer your question, any "natural language" query of modest importance, where asking a question like "will there be any more movies in that series by this director?" is easier than checking the usual movies websites.
How does that work? You just type that before your query and it gives you ai answers?
Yup, there's many of them. I use DDG all the time, but this feature probably works in other search engines too - I just don't know
From any search bar configured to use DDG, just type !ai followed by your query
You can do this from the DDG website too of course. Other useful "bangs" include !w for Wikipedia, or !aw for the Arch Linux wiki, or even just !img for image search.
