In this case, Gemini actually introduced significant friction to those of us who didn’t ask for and don’t want a fucking AI prompt over our search, especially without a way to disable it.

That’s awesome. I have an extension in firefox that does something similar, but I’ve been looking for a way to get similar functionality in Edge on my work computer (not my choice of browser lol, it’s company mandated). Thanks!
If you type it in, the AI won’t do anything, but web page results look fine under that?
