    They've got their bot detection models wrong. Regular users are marked as bots but that's just how it is with ML Models, there are always users who are incorrectly marked.

    The sad thing is, they don't care about the rewards program, so users like us are bottom tier. I'd rather use Perplexity for search and I'm even willing to pay for it rather than a sub-par search engine with sub-par results for pennies.
