How does it use AI?

I think it's meant to be a joke, poking fun at the "AI" that many systems claim to use these days.

It doesn't seem that way. Here is an earlier comment by the OP:

"the site uses many algorithms some of which are AI-based. AI does not always kick in or in other words its results are not always ranked higher. Try this search - https://aidomainsearch.com/?search=z . as you can see brand and composite have ai capabilities. We want to use ai more extensively in future."

Wow, then... I don't like to be a hater, but honestly this is pretty terrible - all it seems to do is add random suffixes to a word you enter?!

Maybe you should add a /s? It is a joke right? If not it doesn't seem to be working, I'm just getting back my keyword with hundreds of suffixes.

Tried searching multiple words but just keep getting a popup saying it can’t find any results

Maybe try some more common words. I didn't get any results for my first few searches ("worldbuilding", "terraforming", and "dimensional"), but got some for "writing" and "creating".

Just a friendly reminder to be careful and think twice before using any domain name search/generator service. Fairly frequently you'll find out that coincidentally it was registered not that long time ago and now is available for you at premium price - especially if it takes you a while to decide. Just use whois from command line.
