It has been announced by Google that they would start introducing AI generated answers in search made by users in the United States. This is one of the biggest updates to its search engine in 25 years.
Google chief executive Sundar Pichai confirmed this at an event in California on Tuesday, May 14 where he said; “I’m excited to announce that we will begin launching this fully revamped experience, ‘AI overviews,’ to everyone in the US this week,”
News also has it that the Google search result will also have an AI summary at the top of the page before the more typical unfurling of links and the AI answers generated by Google’s Gemini technology will offer concise summaries of what it found on the internet with links to the online sources that supplied the information.
The change is coming as a result of the pressure Google is feeling from AI-powered search engines like Perplexity, and there are rumors that OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is building its own AI search tool.
Going further, Sundar Pichai added that the change will soon spread to other countries,, making it accessible to more than a billion people.
