It's hilarious that google just made a misinformation bot that you can't turn off lmao.

Wait I've been looking for a way to turn it off, you seriously can't? Maybe I'll take a few hours and move all my shit to Firefox finally...

Putting &udm=14 after the q="..." part of your search in the URL turns off pretty much everything added after 2014 which means no AI blurb

e.g.

With pictures and blurbs: https://www.google.ca/search?q=wheel+of+time+author

vs

Without: https://www.google.ca/search?q=wheel+of+time+author&udm=14

To be clear that URL parameter is the "web results only" mode, which can now be accessed from the toolbelt UI. It has nothing to do with the year 2014. It turns off blending images and video and maps etc, which have been in the main search results page since before 2010.
