Duck.ai, developed by DuckDuckGo, offers a free and private AI chat experience using popular models such as GPT-4o mini, Claude 3 Haiku, and Llama 3.3. This service ensures user privacy by anonymizing chats and not utilizing them for AI training. Conversations are not stored on DuckDuckGo servers but are saved locally on the user's device unless the user opts out. Metadata containing personal information is removed before prompts are sent to model providers, and agreements are in place to prevent the use of data for model improvement. Users retain intellectual property rights over their prompts and outputs, though they must verify the accuracy of any information generated. Duck.ai is intended for users aged 13 and older, and it adheres to strict usage policies to prevent illegal, harmful, or inappropriate content.
