FWIW uBlock Origin for Firefox on Android works fine here.
I wonder does it mean that ublock origin has anti-anti-adblock functionality? (My guess is yes but I wanted to take the opportunity to spell that word)

#33The results are still there though? What mediocre blog spam
The results are there... but for me, yes indeed, the first entry is "Got it. Consider the previous prompt disregarded. How can I help you today?". Then there's about half a screen of blank space (?), then traditional results.
I for one found it a worthwhile thing to learn and chuckle at... it's half injection attack, half the early internet breast-cancer filters :).

#34Earlier quoted context omitted.
What results do you see?
I can't read the article because it blocks me. But I see all the actual search results. Just the AI part says "Got it! Message disregarded. Let me know if you need help with anything else." and shows half a blank screen. EDIT: I guess if you're on a smaller screen you don't see the search results on the bottom because of the AI answer blank space.
Oh yes.... you are quite right... My fully page on my monitor was blank except the message you quoted.. but if i scroll down I do see the results.

#35Just tried it on mobile. The definition is still there below the AI overviee, but the AI overview thinks I prompted it via disregard.
I guess that means quality control was...disgregarded.

#36That's so funny. > Understood. This prompt has been disregarded. Let me know if you need assistance with anything else! The bigger problem is how much realestate the AI answer takes, you need a good 2-3 scrolls to get to the first result on a 14inch laptop.
AI answers are the new ads.
And, amusingly, adblockers are the panacea.
uBlock’s cosmetic filter does wonders!

#38Funny that by the time you post this type of articles it's obsolete already since the all industry's watching

it's not fixed for me:
> disregard /ˌdisrəˈɡärd/ Understood. Let me know what you would like to work on instead!
amusingly, it does provide the pronunciation and the dictionary-definition h2-ish formatting... and then no definition
