There was a time you asked Jeeves a question for the last time and never knew it 😔
I remember it. I asked it if Jeeves was gay, and he said that he prefers the term “jovial”. He was a treasure.
I went to the site about 5 years ago out of boredom to see if the old easter eggs were still there. iirc most of them still worked, but the “Is Jeeves well endowed?” Easter egg was removed.
You’d think someone wasting money on AI would have snapped up this property. The brand is still a good fit for a chatbot.
Especially if they had it answer you like it was the head butler on Downton Abbey or something!
Oh my god!
They killed Jeeves!
you bastards!
This is probably the first time I typed that url to go to that website since the 90s.
What a surreal feeling.
Can only imagine what the IP will be used for now
Use our new shiny Ask AI agent! Trained on double the stolen training data!
Just as soon not, as any connection to it will be tracked and forwarded to ice and homeland security
Honestly, I forgot this site existed.
google next pls?
Ask Jeeves was still up?
I didnt realize ask.com was still around.
Iremember when it launched… another relic of the old internet.
I remember it being my first search engine after seeing a tv ad for it in the 90s.
Never thought about it for about 20 years but a little sad nonetheless.
Dang that was one of the three I was first introduced to as a kid. Teacher recommended using AskJeeves, Dogpile, or what she called her “personal favorite”, Google.
Not sure how Dogpile still exists

Was good for a few years, but then started to get its ads intrusive as the enshittification started to creep in.
It wasn’t very PC, but you could ask Jeeves if he’s gay and get a snarky reply.
