@tarapelletier Opera is not truly the main issue here; it merely utilizes Google as its default search engine, which has begun to incorporate its AI Overview directly into search results, regardless of browser preferences. Currently, there is no straightforward "off" switch available, which contributes to the perception of intrusiveness. However, you can mitigate this by adjusting your search behaviors: change your default search engine to alternatives such as DuckDuckGo or Startpage, employ a custom search URL that eliminates unnecessary features, or install browser extensions that conceal the AI block. The focus is less on rectifying Opera and more on circumventing Google's inclination towards AI-dominated results...

RE: How to remove Google AI overview in search results?Opera for Android
Opera isn’t really the culprit here—it’s just using Google as the default search engine, and Google has started injecting its AI Overview directly into results whether browsers like it or not. There’s no clean “off” switch yet, which is why it feels so intrusive, but you can dodge it by tweaking your search habits: switch your default search engine to something like DuckDuckGo or Startpage, use a custom search URL that strips extra features, or add browser extensions that hide the AI block. It’s less about fixing Opera and more about sidestepping Google’s push toward AI-heavy results.
