&udm=14is still unknown??Remove all ai automatically, without having to add random profanities.

Add the querystring to your searches and it disables all AI results. Do this automatically with a browser extensions such as:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/udm-14/
Why does this work?
Because Google has set it up to work. A query parameter is just that it's a parameter for your query. In this case Google has set that parameter to disable AI search results.
