DuckDuckGo leans Further into GenAI as its AI Chat Interface exits Beta.![Another feature DuckDuckGo is offering to make it easier to integrate GenAI into user’s search workflows is the ability to easily switch between its conventional search engine interface to AI chat and vice versa.
A chat button displayed below the search box of its search engine [see screengrab] instantly transports the user to the AI chat interface — with the prompt-field there pre-filled with whatever they had just been searching for on DuckDuckGo’s search engine, making it easy to hit the send button and get an AI-generated answer to the same query.
Reversing this flow just requires tapping on the same [now highlighted] chat button to flip back to its conventional web search interface. So this is a best-of-both-worlds approach to tapping GenAI in search.
“We’re finding that some people prefer to start in chat mode and then jump into more traditional search results when needed, while others prefer the opposite,” DuckDuckGo writes, suggesting “some questions just lend themselves more naturally to one mode or the other, too.”
“So, we thought the best thing to do was offer both. We made it easy to move between them, and we included an off switch for those who’d like to avoid AI altogether,” the search engine company adds.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/114/200/439/726/610/102/original/cf82b7695103c680.png "Another feature DuckDuckGo is offering to make it easier to integrate GenAI into user’s search workflows is the ability to easily switch between its conventional search engine interface to AI chat and vice versa.
