I hate AI getting shoved into everything.
I use JetBrains Rider to code hobbyist shit and after the most recent update, it started doing this extremely aggressive (and WRONG) code generation that was far more distracting than it could ever be helpful. Well, it can't be AI, because when they added AI I immediately took all steps to disable it.
Wrong! They added more AI. As a new plugin. Had to disable it as well. Like a fucking virus.
And its like... okay maybe I should stop using Rider? So I can just go checks notes use an IDE from a company that has an even bigger stake in AI (Microsoft).
If you're on firefox, get the plugin "Google search engine with udm=14 preset" and set your search engine to that new version of google. It'll automatically switch to "web" results, which removes all the AI garbage.
Alternatively, it seems like you can append "-ai" to any search and it won't show it. No idea if its still running the AI in the background though.
