How to Permanently Hide Google Generative Search Experience
person Patrick Bushe ยท calendar_today May 1, 2026
If you find the Google Generative Search Experience (SGE) distracting, trying to collapse it manually on every search is exhausting. To permanently hide it across all your searches, you need a client-side override. By installing the Remove Google AI Overview extension, your browser automatically suppresses the generative UI. Because the extension runs locally in the background, it permanently ensures that your search results remain clean and traditional, without requiring any repetitive manual dismissals.
