I googled a definition of a word today. it took me two minutes to get chrome to not use the "AI mode" search when searching via the address bar

tomorrow I'm switching to Firefox at work. after I spend an hour trying to figure out how to remove the copilot overlay from Excel, anyways

    When it comes to disabling AI in Google searches, you have two choices:

    • Lawful Option: Add -ai to the end of your search, ie, "define asinine -ai"
    • Chaotic Option Add profanity to your search, ie, "what the fuck does asinine mean"

    this wasn't the AI preview/response thing at the top of a regular Google search result. they brought me into a new "AI mode" chatbot window completely separate from google search

    I'm still not sure how I got it to fuck off. it kept doing it for simple searches, but would do a regular search if the search keys had enough words
