Google offers a hidden option to filter out AI content, allowing a return to earlier search styles. A method discovered by Ernie Smith alludes to a cheat code that can directly lead to AI-free search results, offering a streamlined experience without ads and unwanted summaries while retaining access to all necessary information.
