How to Stop ChatGPT Style Answers in Google Search

If you prefer researching via primary sources rather than reading derived, conversational summaries, Google's new layout is frustrating. To stop ChatGPT-style answers from hijacking your search queries, you need to use a targeted blocker. The Remove Google AI Overview extension is built for this exact purpose. It zeroes in on the conversational AI interface Google injects, removing the text-generation UI completely and reverting your search engine to a traditional index lookup tool rather than a chatbot.
