I really wish Google had some kind of global “I don’t want any identifiably AI-generated content hitting my retinas, ever” checkbox.

Too much to ask, surely.

That'd be a bit like expecting Five Guys to cook you something vegetarian. Google are an AI company at this point. If you don't want AI touching your "food", use a search engine not run by an AI company.

No, they didn't. You just didn't do the homework. I don't blame you, this is pervasive on the internet, regardless of hn karma score.
