Since I'm job and work hunting I tend to see the absurd new job titles that are bouncing around in the tech sector. The latest, which I've seen twice today, is "artificial general intelligence engineer" or some permutation thereof. I do my best to spend the minimum possible time on these and have no guess about whether they're legitimate.

Am I to understand from this that SearXNG is in the process of becoming AI poisoned?

A mere week into 2026, OpenAI launched “ChatGPT Health” in the United States, asking users to upload their personal medical data and link up their health apps in exchange for the chatbot’s advice about diet, sleep, work-outs, and even personal insurance decisions.(from https://buttondown.com/maiht3k/archive/chatgpt-wants-your-health-data/).
This is the probably inevitable endgame of FitBit and other "measured life" technologies. It isn't about health; it's about mass managing bodies. It's a short hop from there to mass managing minds, which this "psychologized" technology is already being deployed to do (AI therapists and whatnot). Fully corporatized human resource management for the leisure class (you and I are not the intended beneficiaries, to be clear; we're the mass).
Neural implants would finish the job, I guess. It's interesting how the tech sector pushes its tech closer and closer to the physical head and face. Eventually the push to penetrate the head (e.g. Neuralink) should intensify. Always with some attached promise of convenience, privilege, wealth, freedom of course.

Regarding the last boost: I find LibreOffice to be quite good, it's offline, it's available for Windows if you use that, and it's free. https://www.libreoffice.org

Latest FOSS Academic post is: Oops! All Microslop. Or, Trying to Write with Microsoft.
https://fossacademic.tech/2026/01/06/oops-all-microslop.html
It's a post in which I see what it's like for me to try to create a blank document with York University's Microsoft 365 subscription.
TL;DR version is: it's all about Copilot, and starting a blank Word doc is actually kinda... hard.
The post is a bit long, but it does have a lot of screenshots + a dash of anger.

A remarkably prophetic 1923 cartoon depicting how a creative process would be automated in 2023.
