I personally don’t like the permeation of AI into our lives. It’s been a very quick infiltration and as of yet, I don’t see anything good coming from it. If only it would be used to find solutions to climate change or cure diseases instead of helping people cheat and not think for themselves.
Great article! Personally afterwards I was looking around to be able to also turn off generative AI but at least on my safari app here on my iPad, google seems to have made it impossible.
“Turning off “AI Overviews and more” in Search Labs will not disable all AI Overviews in Search. AI Overviews are part of Google Search like other features, such as knowledge panels, and can’t be turned off.”
I then went to the “search lab” tab but they said that “ Search Labs isn’t available for your account right now”
Oh well, now I’m gonna have to look into a more in depth way to do it, possibly on my desktop using the terminal.

Exactly!! The way it drives a lack of critical thinking is alarming to me.
