You've just burned yourself. Give in to your natural inclination to swear, and make advertisers and stupid AIs go away :)
two google searches, one for "how hot does a dishwasher coil get" infested with ads and gibbering from an LLM, and the other for "how fuckin hot is this dishwasher coil", gloriously unsullied by either of those scourges

A photo of the Kings Guard captioned "King Charles guards surprise crowd with unique rendition of Black Sabbath's 'Paranoid' to Honour Ozzy Osbourne". Meta AI helpfully suggests "How did Ozzy Osbourne react to the tribute" as a followup question.

taito's 1989 fighting game "VIOLENCE FIGHT" is obscure but i feel like a search engine should know that one

imagine how they'd react to this
the opening scene of PC game King's Quest in all its pixelated glory. Prince Graham stands in a field facing a castle, surrounded by a moat. There is a small bridge across that moat to the south, and a tree to Graham's immediate east. A path leads around the castle on its south side from the bridge, and someone walking along it would pass the castle flora and various banners and pennants hung proudly on the walls and flying from the battlements.

A two-panel meme image. The first is a sign for the Preston Street BIA's "Little Italy" neighbourhood, marked "THE SIGN". The second is an image marked "MY VERY NORMAL INNER MONOLOGUE" of Patrick Star from Spongebob Squarepants, standing at the wheel of a ghostly pirate ship, eyes and mouth open, tongue up against his teeth, from a moment in the show where he exclaimed his warcry: "LEEDLE LEEDLE LEEDLE LEE"

None, but they weren't nearly as depressing as the result

vote intention doesn't matter if half the population stays home

it tells you how it functions
an auction listing for "caps", "puzzle" and "rubric cube", with a picture of those first two items and a Rubik's Cube, a toy whose name was somehow confused for a different word despite sounding nothing alike and containing some different letters.

a miscaptioned simpsons clip, with an angry homer yelling at runaway Itchy and Scratchy Land robots for ruining his vacation. This Homer has a Quebec flag, Marge a Canadian flag and Bart an Alberta flag. THe caption reads 'back you americans! nobody threatens canadian sovereignty except me and maybe alberta'

a clip of defunct game "habbo hotel" with a voice bubble that reads "bobba". In that game, the word "bobba" was the word filter's output whenever you tried to say a word the game deemed inappropriate
