STFU AI: A Novel New Way to Turn off AI Overviews on Google

It’s no secret that many people loath Google’s AI-generated search results. The rollout has been met with frustration, users complaining about lies, misleading answers, poor-quality summaries, and AI responses crowding out traditional organic links. This dissatisfaction has led to an ongoing effort to find ways to disable or bypass AI-driven search results entirely.

Today, we stumbled upon a rather amusing workaround. If you want Google to ditch its AI-generated fluff and give you a good old-fashioned list of blue links, all you have to do is add a little profanity to your search query. That’s right—just dropping an f-bomb or another well-placed swear word seems to do the trick. It’s almost as if Google’s AI is programmed to take a step back when confronted with a little linguistic spice.

And if you need inspiration, a few choice words from the late, great George Carlin wouldn’t hurt either. His famous “Seven Words You Can’t Say on TV” might just be your best bet for cutting through the AI-generated noise.

For more practical solutions, check out our earlier story on how to fully disable Google’s AI-generated search results—without resorting to profanity.

Simply swear a little in your query. Seems like a classic f-bomb is the way to go here. Although a few choice words from George Carlin Carlin never hurt either 😉
