Yeah make sure you become a broken record to friends, fam, students, colleagues, clients anyone you care abt --- ALWAYS scroll down past the "slop at the top" of ALL search results to get to the actual shit underneath.

To do internet searches without getting that annoying #AIsummary (which usually makes for one more useless thing to scroll through to get to the links you want to see, and which wastes a large amount of electricity every time), you can add a simple bit of text at the beginning or end of your search query.

Type “hyphen AI” at the start or end of any search query to not get that annoying AI summary at the top of your search results (which usually makes for one more useless thing to scroll through to get to the links you want to see, and which wastes data center electricity every time).

For example:
-ai Names of all four Beatles
**OR**
Names of all four Beatles -ai

This is super cool, thanks from us all.

For a while I used https://www.google.com/search?q=%20&udm=14 to avoid the AI responses. Later I switched to https://www.ecosia.org/ which at least for now does not use AI by default.

@AnneTheWriter1 @thomkennon @GossiTheDog Or, even better, change your default search engine! #Startpage, for example, gives you non-personalised results retrieved from Google and comes without AI. According to their privacy policy they don't track every search you do, unlike #Google!
Remember: If you use Google, any identifiers like a login to your Google Account will be used by Google to link all of your search prompts to you! And most of Android users are logged in to their Google account on their device.

#Metager can also be recommended in case you are willing to pay a small amount. And there are even more search engines...
