i hope not the LLM/GenAI kind
maybe thats a different service they offer
I uninstalled it when it forced me to update the app before using it.

As stupid as that home page looks, DeepL is one of the services that was already using “AI” and it’s a valid use case. Has the functionality actually changed?

Yep but he UX is the problem here, the homepage used to be the translator. Fortunately, you can fix this by bookmarking the /translator page.
I didn’t complain about that huge pop-up that shifts the whole UI down so you have to either close it or scroll down, but it’s becoming worse and worse.

Ok I see what you mean. On mobile it still opens the translator but on desktop it’s pretty annoying.

Well, but not GenAI in the current meaning; LLMs have similarities to it but still use a different technology

Whereever someone says generative AI they are including LLM in that.

The screenshot doesn’t claim to use LLMs though. AI could be anything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
