Tell HN: Add "NSFW" words in your Google query to avoid AI summary
If you add NSFW words (even a simple "nsfw" is enough) in your search query, Google won't show Gemini's summary at the top, and goes straight to results.
- rzz3 1y agoThis is great. The AI summaries are so horrible.
- rl3 1y agoLess exciting, but you can also just include -noai in the query.
- idbnstra 1y agohow did you find this out?
- rl3 1y agoProbably from this article: https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/block-google-ai-overviews https://www.tomshardware.com/how-to/block-google-ai-overview... It's one of the alternate methods described.
- sorokod 1y agoTIL, a possible origin of the English word "nookie" https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/nookie#English https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/nookie#English
- Rendello 1y agoYou meant to respond to my comment, not this one. In any case, this is news to me too, interesting.
- Rendello 1y agoWell, don't do this at work. You might end up with (unexpected but predictable) results! It reminds me of the time I was trying to find this meme about the NSFW Dutch phrase "neuken in de keuken" (sex in the kitchen) [1], so I Googled those words as best I remembered them and clicked the images tab, and (shockingly) it was all kitchen porn. I guess I forgot that people would look for porn in their native languages. 1. https://img.ifunny.co/images/67b2b1e1f9a27f263f9ed34c32a116675267df59f41f55217fd863f6b5c2ccd8_1.jpg https://img.ifunny.co/images/67b2b1e1f9a27f263f9ed34c32a1166...
- bsder 1y agoYeah. Don't forget that the connector company is spelled Assmann. Two N's. Do not forget one of those N's when the CEO, CTO and VP of procurement are looking over your shoulder.
- BobbyTables2 1y agoWith a name like that who would ever want to purchase from Amphenol?
- asyx 1y agoThat’s a meme? I thought that’s just the 3 words drunk Germans yell on vacation. Kinda like how Dutch people like to yell Schweinehund at my car.
- scarface_74 1y agoWell, I use to live here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumming,_Georgia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumming,_Georgia You can imagine the kind of results I got if I wasn’t very careful about my search terms…
- inkubus 1y agojust use "web" tab in search output
- a0sud0a8s 1y agoI updated chrome's default search handler to add the &udm=14 param - which is equivalent.

- elpocko 1y agoGet worse results by adding unrelated search terms just so you don't have to scroll past a few lines of useful text while you still put up with all the other useless crap. Bizarre solutions to non-existent problems. How about blocking the div in your adblocker, or running a userscript, or (and I know this sounds crazy) not using the deeply offensive service at all?
- tamimio 1y agoI stopped using google as a search engine for almost 2 years now, because I know that the result is there yet google somehow chooses to omit it for whatever reason, defeating its purpose.
- metalman 1y agowith java scripts,cookies and DOM storage turned off on an android phone, searches useing yahoo will not display an AI synopsis, except sometimes when it just does, very briefly, display the AI summerary and then reloads without it.....
- rajkumarsekar 1y agoGreat, thanks for sharing. However, adding 'nsfw' returns different and unrelated content. '-noai' works well.
- palata 1y agoWhy not just ignoring the AI summary? Google has to pay for the AI summary, right? I'm happy to let them pay and just ignore it.
- TheAlchemist 1y agoThis also work for 'AI customer service' - using NSFW words make it switch to a human.
