- Doesn't work on the current version of Google search engine. I'm using Opera GX.
- Deadly Hippo
- Doesn't work at all in the latest version of chrome.

- Middle of the scale rating because while it worked and removed the overview section, it didn't show any previews like the example on the extension screen. The preview only showed up when I wrote "-ai" (which doesn't always work either). I'm not sure how that can be fixed, but when it is, I'll more than happily give 5 stars.

- Does what it says. Why are there no options to disable this clutter? (Enshitification)

- Just installed it today, after someone recommending it on a Reddit thread where people were complaining about Ai overviews. It worked on Chrome , removing the AI overview. Great! :) So I thought. BUUUT.. later in the day I wasn't able to see my open Reddit threads anymore - the same ones where it was recommended! The outline of the reddit search bar would pulsate red and that was that. Page still open, URL there but all empty where the user's post and commenst were supposed to be. I did not started a new search, just went back to already open tabs. HUH?? Nor was I able to find the threads with a google search nor searching within reddit, altohough I gave the whole posts names in "". Tried on Brave the same URLs and searches, they worked. As I am not a tech expert and I also forgot about the extension, it took me a moment to figure out what may have happened. Also weird, I couldn't think of it first as it was showing plenty of other search results with "AI" in them, just not the ones that i was just reading previously. So I couldn't even realise immediately what caused this. Than I had to turn on and off separate extensions ione by one (I have several ones for different issues), just to figure out if any of them is causing the problem and which one. And this one was it. As soon as I turned it off, my content reapppeared, turn it on, it diappears again. Strange. Blocking some things that have "AI" in them, even if they are not overviews but people's whole discussion threads!? How? Even if there were some bots in the reddit commenst, as they are everywhere now, the threads and most comments were legit. I am upset! This doesn't seem to be just a bug and it is worse than "it just doesn't work". Anyways, if I want to waste time and energy testing and trouble-shooting some things, I just stay with Microsoft and Google, they have plenty of loose ends. :D So, this extension, to me, it toally overdid it. Thus, I will remove it. That being said, I apreciate the efforts of developing it! And I hope this was just an exception that will be fixed and it will hopefully help many other folks. I would give a bit better rating for the part that did work, but the developers' responses to people who gave feedback, accusing them being the problem themselves is shocking and holds me back from it.

- Great Extension!

- The best bye bye annoying Google AI automatic misinformation source bs.
- Ethan Burger
- Worked well enough for a while, but I would still get AI overviews in drop down menus which I was also hoping to avoid. Then on November 3rd it the plugin began demanding an update and in order to install the update I needed to give it permission to view and alter my data across all websites. Absolutely not.
- Merci-Wheelium
- It's good but I wish it would work consistently on YouTube.
- Armando M
- thank god

- Jakub Kaczynski
- seems to be working (at the moment; 2025-07-31)
- Jussi Päivinen
- Works as of 26.7., but these extensions come and go as Google is probably always updating how the overview is shown... keep up the good work though! I hope at some point they provide switch to not destroy environment needlesly on every search.
- Aden Avalon
- Similarly to others, on Opera I'm finding that, sadly, this doesn't work. Might be browser specific? Either way, the attitude of 'It works for everyone but you' really sucks as there are multiple people confirming this isn't working on Opera.
- Sourik Beltrán
- It works.
- Bailey Villeneuve
- doesn't work. it does seem like this may be due to browser issues, as i'm using Opera and it seems like others having trouble with these blockers are also using Opera, but still disappointing especially since the dev has supposedly tested it on "all platforms and browser versions" and is accusing people of writing fake reviews.
- Neve Teeple
- Works as advertised, the only issue I had was when clicking on the suggested searches (People also ask?), it still occasionally gave me the AI overview. But for searches itself it is perfect.
- Andrew Swallow
- Doesn't work, I've tried this one and many others. Bummer :/
- LEONARDO MIGUEL RIBAS
- Perfect
- Special Agent Doge
- Doesn't work.
- Qwandary
- I've tried several add-ons to remove the ai summaries today and this one, like the others, only worked for a few seconds before the summaries came back. I didn't even write reviews for the others, but seeing the dev accusing any negative review of being fake made me feel the need to emphasis this doesn't work for everyone. It's a bad look to say 'it works for everyone if we ignore everyone it doesn't work for'. It obviously works for the dev, there may be other factors impairing it for others. And there's plenty of people saying it doesn't work. But that attitude is concerning. For clarity, if it helps the dev or others; I'm running this through opera on a laptop.
