Go to https://ecosia.org/ in a private browser window. It says “AI that answers to the planet”. Search something and the AI Overview on top is enabled by default.

For what it's worth i've been using them for like a year and I clear my cookies often and never got this AI overview thingy you're talking about. I actually have no clue how it even looks like.

    That's A-B testing. Another evil gas lighting dystopian thing that has got people questioning their sanity. Even something as basic as how a website's UI behaves has to be hidden behind some secret "innovative" algorithm that "optimizes our engagement."
