There’s an extension called Disable AI that gets rid of those intrusive Google Search AI “replies”. I strongly recommend people to use it, because… seriously, they are convincing but misleading trash.
The two phonemic transcriptions of “disregard” in the first picture are a prime example of that. I could go on a full rant about it, but to keep it short: compare them with the ones provided by Wiktionary, and play “spot the differences”. (Bonus points if you also play “spot the undeclared assumptions”.)
There’s also https://noai.duckduckgo.com/
You can also change it in the settings. Look for “search assist”; values are “never”, “on demand”, “sometimes”, and “often”.
But yeah, to be frank I use mostly DDG nowadays, I focused on Google due to the OP.
