Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search | Kagi Blog
blog.kagi.com
------------------------------------------------------------------- Your collective defense against AI-generated spam and content farms ------------------------------------------------------------------- We made it our mission to prevent the web from becoming useless and a harmful space.

All Kagi Search users can now flag low-quality AI content (“AI slop”) in web, image, and video search results. We will verify these reports using our own signals. If a domain primarily publishes AI-generated content, we will downrank it in Kagi Search and mark it as AI slop. If a page is AI-generated but the domain is mixed (not mostly AI), we will flag the page as AI-generated but will not downrank it.

For media results, images and videos confirmed as AI-generated, they will be labelled as such and automatically downranked on the results page. Users can also choose to filter out AI-generated media entirely.

      What that means to someone is up to them. Some users on here do not like the US at all, for example, and they might be delighted to be using a Serbian company instead of a US company. That’s not my position, but I’ve no doubt that it’s a perspective for some. I have mentioned Kagi in the past favorably, and simply want people to understand, as best as I can, what using Kagi entails.

      EDIT: For users who might be in the US, though, and not familiar with the political structure in Europe today, while Serbia is in Europe, it is not — presently — in the EU, and isn’t subject to the kind of data privacy laws or legal/judicial regimen that one might expect of companies in the EU.
