I keep trying to find things like “making waffles from sour dough discard” and all the sites are the same: long meandering paragraphs full of links to other things on the site with dubious instructions.

Considering at this point I can pretty much identify the type of site by looking at it; are there good extensions or search engines which might remove them from search results?

You can add filters to unlock origin to remove AI overviews if you are using Google, or add “-ai” at the end of your search query. That, or switch to a browser which doesn’t have AI overviews.

I think what you are describing is just typical filler that you find on recipe websites and not AI. They’re all full of unnecessary stories and links, but most will have a “jump to recipe” button somewhere so you can skip the BS.

The vast majority of that blogspam has been algorithmically generated long before LLMs

Mechanical turk even before that which frankly wasn't much better.
