In December 2024, nearly 50% of Google searches started returning AI Overviews, providing quick answers but frustrating some users seeking traditional link-based results. Google introduced a 'Web' filter that enables users to view search results made up exclusively of text-based links, effectively excluding AI summaries and ads for most queries. This filter can be activated through the search results page, enhancing user experience for those who prefer accessing source links rather than AI-generated answers directly.
Google's new Web filter for search results allows users to bypass AI Overviews, providing pure text-based link results without advertisements or AI summaries.
The AI Overviews have become a standard feature, but they can sometimes frustrate users who prefer accessing links rather than direct answers from the AI.
