I turned this garbage off right away.
Unpopular opinion: I love this feature. Doesn't take up too much screen real-estate. You can scroll right past it when it isn't good. But when it's good, it's actually useful.
The goal of all of this AI garbage is to remove all listing of website sources and you just look at the AI slop. The search engines become the only thing you see and you no longer see the websites the information is stolen from. It is truly abusive. Do not support this trash.
Search has been dead for a while and ai search is actually useful forgetting past spam and ads, prob its best usecase outside of formatting/grammar correction, actually I think ai tooltips should be a thing, learn what you're trying to do or doing wrong and assist you, like a clippy that actually works
