it works

btw for anyone wondering - if you use duckduckgo, it has a lot of options to disable/enable many sorts of ai to your liking

Add's an AI chatbot named Perplexity for you to use instead of a search engine.

They talk about water and energy consumption of AI in their about section so its unbelievable this is part of it. Perplexity uses the same logo as this addon and it was removed from firefox when I removed this extension.

It worked.

Created a profile just for this. Amazing plugin, I can finally use Google search without having to scroll forever!

Nice seems to be working.

Testing it in Android/Firefox now.

How does it do it?

Edit: found this in GitHub, thanks!

Finally, one that actually works. I'm really tired of the AI bubble.

This extension is very power to disable AI overview. I am very like their solution: Stop all actions, requests of AI overviews. I used it on my laptop, so good. Thanks for your help.

YESSS, Thank you!! This seems to be the only generative AI blocker that works on mobile! I will be putting this extension on my PC as well. :)

i love you bro, really needed this

This is the ONLY anti-AI extension that still blocks Google's AI slop on mobile. 5/5

This is amazing!
Most AI blocking add-ons merely hide it from search results, but this one blocks it altogether which is what I've been looking for.
I hate that the forced implementation of AI in search engines is contributing to the depletion of drinking water, pollution of marginalized communities, rapidly rising electricity costs, and spread of misinformation.
None of us consented to this!
Tools like this help us opt out of being complicit.
Forever grateful and will spread the word about its existence!

Was looking for a way to disable this crap by default on brave search till I asked using the "ask ai" button.

The setting for that gets cleared when I close my browser along with a ton of other data and it defaults always on (meaning I had to reset the option every time I closed the browser).

So, I got this and set it on my bar at the top. Now, when I wanna search and ask AI right away I click the icon in the top of my browser, then change the addon settings from "always allow" to "on click" only to revert the change back after I am finished. Plus, if I wanna ask after I search I can just click the ask button and it works even with the addon running.

It does the job I wanted perfectly, that is worth it at least 4 stars, but the fact that its easy to use warranted 5 imo.
