Firefox has tons of extensions to remove/hide/block AI overview in Google searches. Just search "Google AI" on their extensions page and you'll get nearly a dozen extensions to choose from.

The chatbot has history. So it's just trying to remove the Nvidia rtx5090 from her throat.

In the past, I'd sometimes use Google for image reverse search, when the other engines didn't turn up anything. Since they integrated that AI overview, that's basically broken, as it only shows relevant results for maybe 10% of my queries.

I don't know how they managed to break that, like I'm not on the AI overview tab. I just want the functionality they supported for the past 10+ years.

Keep asking it questions until it doesn't want to answer you anymore because you cost so much money /s

When making your search, type "-ai" at the end. For example:

How tall is the Eiffel tower -ai

You're welcome.

This doesn't work about 80% of the time.

But 20% of the time, it works every time!
