    Dude, ever hear of Duck Duck Go? It’s a more privacy focused search engine that you can turn off any AI summaries with one click. It uses Bings DB but its own interface.

      Oh snaps, I forgot that existed, mostly because it used to suck. But if Bing’s better than Google now…

      I’m glad I asked and sorry for being such an ass. Well, mostly sorry ;)

        If Bing’s database isn’t good enough for you, Startpage supposedly uses Google’s database and doesn’t shoehorn AI into the results. You’ll want an adblocker, though. (My usual order of query is Duckduckgo, then Startpage, then Mojeek if the other two didn’t find anything useful.)
