Can I Opt Out of Google AI Overview on Desktop | Bushe.co

Officially, Google makes it deliberately difficult—if not impossible—to permanently opt out of the AI Overview via standard Google Account settings on desktop. However, you can force a local opt-out by modifying your browser. Installing the free Remove Google AI Overview Chrome extension serves as the ultimate opt-out button. It operates silently to execute a client-side block, entirely removing the visual component of the AI overview, essentially enforcing an opt-out protocol strictly on your machine.
