When did Google get so f-ing weird?
sancho.bearblog.dev/google-weird/If you are going to insist on using google, you need to add -ai to every search. That will remove that stupid AI overview.
If you use Firefox like I do, you can add a google search option that does this automatically. Use the parameters: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s%20-AI
If you prefer DuckDuckGo, you can add a no ai option by adding a new search option using the parameters: https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%s

One thing you realize quickly is that pages very cleverly conceal their answer from the search page, most noticably dictionaries.
