I hate Google Search’s AI overviews, so I replaced them with Brave

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-04 22:00:39

Megan Ellis / Android Authority A few months ago, I switched from Google to Brave on my Android phone. While I initially did this to force dark mode on my mobile browser and remove ads, I discovered plenty of benefits to using Brave over Chrome. One of these is access to Brave’s search engine, which prioritizes higher quality results with fewer ads and sponsored results compared to Google Search. But as I’ve continued to use Brave Search across devices, I also realized something else: AI summa

With September inching closer and Apple's next event likely just weeks away, rumors are heating up about the company's fall lineup, which this year could include the Apple Watch Ultra 3 alongside a flagship Apple Watch Series 11 and iPhone 17.

Here’s How to Watch All of the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World Movies in Order

I first saw Jurassic Park one fateful day during middle school when my teacher rolled in a cart topped with a CRT television, popped in a VHS tape and pressed play. I was instantly hooked and I've since watched the film countless times, including on a 2013 trip to see it in 3D on the big screen at my AMC theater. Jurassic World: Rebirth hit cinemas on July 2, and I've been rewatching the entire series to get in the mood. With run times ranging from 1 hour and 32 minutes for Jurassic Park III to

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority I’ve been a Google Pixel Watch user and fan since the original launched in 2022. I wore it every day — except when I was charging it — and then upgraded to the Pixel Watch 2 and later to the 45mm Pixel Watch 3.

What’s a good maximum line length for your coding standard? This is, of course, a trick question.

Lisa Su Runs AMD—and Is Out for Nvidia’s Blood

The United States enables and prolongs these wars not by sending troops to fight in them, but by trafficking arms to the belligerents, providing intelligence to its favored proxies, and using covert operations, especially assassinations, to shape geopolitical conditions.

The GPT-5 rollout has been a big mess

It's been less than a week since the launch of OpenAI's new GPT-5 AI model, and the rollout hasn't been a smooth one. So far, the release sparked one of the most intense user revolts in ChatGPT's history, forcing CEO Sam Altman to make an unusual public apology and reverse key decisions. At the heart of the controversy has been OpenAI's decision to automatically remove access to all previous AI models in ChatGPT (approximately nine, depending on how you count them) when GPT-5 rolled out to user
