You can get rid of AI Overviews in Google Search

Google's AI Overviews feature in search results can be bypassed by adjusting browser settings or using browser extensions. Users can change their default search engine settings in browsers like Chrome and Firefox, or install extensions such as uBlock Origin or Bye Bye, Google AI, to avoid the AI-generated summaries and ads. These methods provide alternatives until Google potentially introduces an option to disable the feature directly.

To set up a custom search engine in Chrome to avoid AI Overviews, you can use the following URL format: {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to add a custom search engine in Chrome:

1. Open Chrome's settings page (You can do this by clicking on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner, then select "Settings" or type chrome://settings in the address bar).
2. Click on "Search Engines" in the side menu (or enter chrome://settings/searchEngines in the address bar).
3. Press the "Add" button above "Other search engines."
4. You should now see a screen with three fields: Search engine, Keyword, and URL with %s in place of query.
5. In the "Search engine" field, enter a name for the search engine (e6.g., "Google without AI").
6. In the "Keyword" field, enter a keyword you want to use for the search engine (e.g., "gnai").
7. In the "URL with %s in place of query" field, paste the following URL: {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14.
8. Click "Save" or "Add."
9. Select the three dots next to the entry you just created and choose "Make default."

With this custom search engine set up, you can now search without seeing AI Overviews. Just type your keyword (e.g., "gnai") in the address bar, press Tab or Space, enter your search query, and hit Enter6.
