Why does Opera now show Google AI overview in search results, and how do I remove this irritating 'feature'?

Add a nickname for your AI-less version of Google
Paste in this URL: {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14

Thanks Anil. How do I do this is Opera on my Android Phone?
I can go Account - Settings - Search which tells me Google is my default search engine and lets me change the search engine from the list - but not add a new search engine? -

Ah, it shows the image when I post...Anyway, that's what I get, the Google AI overview is always the first result to a search, it only appears when I use Opera, and I would like to remove it. Running Android 14 on a Nothing 1.

I hope some kind soul can create an Opera extension that will block the "AI Overview" paragraph that is now at the top of Google search results (it's beyond my abilities to create one). There are a few Chrome extensions that do this, but when installed in Opera, none of them work (usually Chrome extension do work with Opera, but not in this case).
I know the simplest solution is to use another search engine, but I've tried them all and I like Google best -- but I do hate their new AI Overview section which clutters the search results page -- and they don't have an option to turn it off.
A native Opera extension to block the AI Overview section would be pure awesomeness!
