Is there a search engine that blocks websites known to create low effort/AI generated articles? (lemm.ee)

It's getting a bit ridiculous out here. I'm using DuckDuckGo but since it aggregates its search from other sources, it's also gotten bad recently. Is there a search out there that blocks domains that spam AI? Extra points if there's something like Ublock Origin that filters things based on a community-made list.

Edit: I'm aware of Kagi but it's pretty expensive and I'm not a fan that they, too, host their own AI tools.

Man, i was looking up info about arrow rests for recurve/olympic archery yesterday and stumbled on a website that use some sort of AI fever dream for their images.

One kinda looked like a violins neckbrace (i don't know what those things are called) with some strings attached, but it looked like it should look like a thing but after closer inspection it was actually nothing sensible.

I think we've all seen those images that look like a room filled with itema but when you look at a specific item your mind figures out it's just weird shapes and colors.

What a nightmare that was.

I had a similar experience today looking up beer bongs. Some real cthulu type of shit.
