DDG’s AI chat isn’t a search engine. It’s just a chat interface for GPT-3.5 Turbo and Claude, without any search access. It’s also not very up to date.

GPT-3.5 Turbo:

Who is the PM of the UK?

As of my last update, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is Boris Johnson. Please note that political positions can change, so I recommend checking the latest news sources for the most up-to-date information.

Is Queen Elizabeth still alive?

Yes, as of my last update, Queen Elizabeth II is still alive.

The Claude version doesn’t fare any better:

Is Queen Elizabeth still alive?

Yes, Queen Elizabeth II is still alive. She is the current and longest-reigning monarch of the United Kingdom, having ascended to the throne in 1952. As of 2023, she is 96 years old.
