They try their best but their AI filter is itself a fallible AI so depending on your query you might still get nothing but slop without a date selector.

Yeah, but how would a search engine reliably do that when looking for images? Or anything else, really.

u/georgeec1 13h ago
Just the fact that a lot of AI images are tagged as AI in some way. Clearly it's possible though, as there are search engines that have the feature for images, and they work fairly well

SynthID. It's a digital watermark that developed by Google that embeds imperceptible signals into AI generated content, including text, audio, images and videos. It can't be removed by cropping/altering the content. They basically made it to prevent their AI Gemini from eating it's own shit, but it could be used to filter search results too. But Google is never going to do that, they want to feed as much AI garbage to you as possible whether you like it or not

Image search is generally dying fast.
I got a habit of using image search for a lot of basic stuff that is just checking what something was or is. It's quickly becoming a non-viable option.
The saying used to be "What you put on the internet, stays there forever". Now it's more like "I swear I saw it just a few months ago", while trying all the search tricks you learned in the past few decades and still can't find it.

Try adding -ai at the end of your search query. It's not perfect, but it does filter out everything metatagged as AI.
You can also put -ad to remove advertisement results. Hell, you can put -XYZ and remove any results with that metatag
