Kagi AI Summary

The New Mexico Coalition to End Homelessness organizes an annual point-in-time count of the homeless population in Albuquerque. Last year's count found over 2,300 homeless individuals. Volunteers will canvass the city on Tuesday to survey unsheltered people and those in shelters. The count provides data required for federal funding and gives officials a sense of needs. However, it is acknowledged to be an imperfect undercount, as it depends on conditions and willingness to participate. Notably, the 2023 nationwide report found that New Mexico saw the largest increase in homelessness at 57% over the past year, along with high rates of unsheltered veterans and chronic homelessness.

Very much.
I really hate ads. It's nice not having any in the results.
It has lots of nice little extra features. Like specific "lenses" to specify the kind of results your looking for.
The image search let's you filter by actual resolution. A feature I dearly missed when Google removed it.
The browser plugin has the AI summary feature I used here. I use it on almost every article I run across, then decide if I want to read the whole thing. It's a great time saver.
