I've been becoming irritated lately with search in other apps being taken over by their flavor of AI. I use the Microsoft Swift keyboard on my phone and it's now trying to inject their AI search results over my Google searches in Firefox and the results take me to Bing.
Then today I was watching a video on Instagram and the screen went off. I lost of the video as the app refreshed when I turned on the screen again. I tried to search for it but now IG search has been turned into a Meta AI search. It offers AI answers instead of the videos I was looking and it seems like it's the only option.
WTF are they messing up search across the platforms? Get off my lawn!
