also i wouldn't install their extension just for that, you can edit your default search engine to anu address you want in the settings

browser extensions are a huge privacy risk and i wouldn't trust ddg with my data because of their Microsoft deal, not to block their trackers (they reverted that part after the backlash) in the ddg browser and to only show msn under their news tab in regular ddg

Nope. I don't get any AI results and I've changed no settings. They used to be AI in DuckDuckGo everyone complained about it and they took it out. And this is using a VPN set to Canada so it should be the same results as you're getting. If I want AI have to click the assistive search button in the top right. Which I can see clearly is highlighted in your screenshot meaning you probably clicked it at some point and you need to unclick it.
