Kagi has an AI search option which IIRC is on by default -- or at least was at one point -- where it'll try to also synthesize an answer and stick it in a box with the results, but you can just turn it off in your preferences. I have it off.

There may be a day when we have AI assistants that are so good that their summaries are better than looking at the original source, but I'd put a high bar on that, and think that we've got a way to go.

It’s off by default, but activated when you end your search query with a question mark. That option can be turned off.
