   Mostly I ignore those “AI Overviews” that are infesting web searches these   
   days. The vast majority of them seem to range from being light on content   
   to being completely useless.   
      
   Now, I found an exception.   
      
   In KDE Konsole, every now and then, I find the I-beam cursor changes to a   
   hand within a terminal session tab. Everything else worked as before, so I   
   thought of this as a minor, cosmetic bug. I could have other tabs within   
   the same window with the usual I-beam cursor. This happens very rarely --   
   maybe once in several months.   
      
   Then yesterday, it happened again. So just for fun, I typed a few search   
   terms in, and a clue to the answer came back: at some point, according to   
   the AI, some text had been highlighted that looked like a URL, and the   
   hand was Konsole’s way of indicating that the link was clickable. The fix   
   to clear the condition is to find another URL in the terminal output and   
   click on it. This doesn’t actually do anything with the link (you have to   
   make a selection from the right-click menu for that), but it does return   
   the cursor to the regular I-beam.   
      
   Just a moment ago, I just tried explicitly selecting and clicking some   
   URLs in a window, including in the scrollback, and the hand cursor never   
   appeared. So I’m not really sure what state Konsole can get into that   
   causes this cursor to come up in the first place, so it’s likely the AI   
   was wrong about that (as usual). All I’m sure about, is that clearing it   
   can be done by looking for URLs in the terminal output.
