After starting a general public test AI previews in March, Google launched the reduced feature for all users in May. This major announcement was made during the annual I/O event for the future of its ecosystem. The beginnings of AI Overviews came with Google’s belief that the software could handle more “complex” queries. The company said users no longer need to break their questions into smaller chunks.

These little boxes of information are designed to give users the most important details without a lot of reading. Additionally, users will also see source links so they can check what the AI ​​said in case something goes wrong.

More recently, Google implemented a new “organized” view for its research results as well as AI insights. The highlight of this update was that users would find a “full page” experience in search, which lists discovered information in order of “relevance”. Additionally, this global expansion of AI insights will likely become more pronounced as Google includes more ads.

This early October update saw a slight increase in ads after the company received “positive feedback” about them. Ads will appear during “relevant queries”. Google wants them to be useful when searching for a user.
