Auto-generated webs have destroyed the usefulness of Google. Nowadays I have
been experimenting with Searx instances using a combination of search engines
that include mojeek and other smaller projects such as wiby.me. AI generated
sites catter to google and bing algorythms so you dodge many of them using
other engines.

There are web engines designed to supply only sites that are not overloaded
with ads. SInce auto-generated sites are created for an economic incentive, the
idea of using these search engines for dodging them is sound.
