Up to this point, we\u2019ve seen ads appear directly above and below the snapshot, but not inside of it. Considering the importance of ad revenue, it feels inevitable that ads would be integrated into AI Overviews in some capacity. Google has indicated that they will continue to experiment with ads. According to CEO Sundar Pichai during <a href=\"https:\/\/searchengineland.com\/google-ceo-talks-future-of-sge-gemini-ads-and-ai-search-437048\"><span class=\"s1\">Alphabet\u2019s Q4 earnings call<\/span><\/a>:<\/p><p>\u201cAs we shared last quarter, ads will continue to play an important role in the new search experience and will continue to experiment with new formats native to SGE. SGE is creating new opportunities for us to improve commercial journeys for people by showing relevant ads alongside search results. We\u2019ve also found that people are finding ads either above or below the AI-powered overview helpful as they provide useful options for people to take action and connect with businesses.\u201d<\/p><p class=\"p1\">As important as the content, visual design, and inclusion of ads are to the success of SGE, its visibility and timing in search results are just as critical for SEOs.<\/p><p><strong>UPDATE (Hours later):<\/strong> The paint has yet to dry on this article and hours later, news leaks that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/2f4bfeb4-6579-4819-9f5f-b3a46ff59ed1\">Google is considering a paid GenAI (and potentially AI Overviews) product.<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cbe9359 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cbe9359\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0cf1e69\" data-id=\"0cf1e69\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-133021c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"133021c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>It is unclear how exactly the company would seek to integrate AI-powered search into these paid-for services, which offer different pricing tiers, or when the AI-powered search offering would be ready to launch. <strong>Google could still decide to launch certain elements of its experimental AI-powered service into its main, free search engine over time,<\/strong> according to people familiar with its thinking.

It\u2019s not the first time they\u2019ve aimed to keep searchers on Google. Despite all of their talk about building a healthy web, the more time spent on the search results, the more ad impressions, the more ad revenue.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Featured snippets have been around since 2014. For the most simple definitions or simple answers, pulling a word-for-word passage from a web page saved searchers a ton of time.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Truthfully, most people want the cliff notes most of the time. We don\u2019t want the story behind the recipe (unless we do). We don\u2019t care about the history of your nomadic life to learn about the best things to do in Jamaica (unless we do.)\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p1\">For informational searches with one answer, we don\u2019t always need the *best* info. Information can be commodified.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p1\">We need info that\u2019s good enough (or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blindfiveyearold.com\/its-goog-enough\"><span class=\"s1\">Goog enough<\/span><\/a>). We expect it to be accurate. AI Overviews aims to reduce the work to discover answers and solutions. Reduce the cognitive load. We\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Satisficing\"><span class=\"s1\">satisficing<\/span><\/a> our search results. We want the TL;DR. If we like the person, brand, or writing, we\u2019ll put in the work to read more. We have the option.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p1\">But the LLMs have their known limitations:<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\">Hallucinations: They still make things up.<\/li><li class=\"li1\">Misinterpretations: Despite significant gains in Natural Language Processing, it still doesn\u2019t understand the nuance of every query.<\/li><li class=\"li1\">Bias output: The outputs are still trained on biased content and the internet is full of biased content.<\/li><li class=\"li1\">Persona corruption: Sometimes the output will have an opinion despite Google\u2019s engineer\u2019s guidelines to reflect a neutral and objective tone.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p1\">The team at Google claimed that they were going to limit the use of AI Overviews for critical queries that are financial-related or health-related(Your Money Your Life or YMYL). But early on in experimenting, YMYL searches frequently had results.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">It\u2019s in Google\u2019s best interest for AI Overviews to produce helpful and safe results. If the AI Overview consistently creates snapshots that are deceptive, unsafe, or worse than the traditional search results, searchers will begin to look elsewhere for their information. Fewer searches mean less ad revenue: Alphabet\u2019s primary source of revenue.<\/p><p>To that end, the overview claims that they have a few key processes in place to monitor, review, and evaluate performance of the feature:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d7ab7fd elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d7ab7fd\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-423b24d\" data-id=\"423b24d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c103fd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7c103fd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul><li><em><strong>Raters:<\/strong> We work with independent Search Quality Raters to help us measure the quality of outputs and the results displayed.

The rollout was quick and not without <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/technology\/2023\/02\/16\/microsoft-bing-ai-chatbot-sydney\/\"><span class=\"s1\">glitches and hitches<\/span><\/a>.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Google had been building toward a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/search\/how-ai-powers-great-search-results\/\"><span class=\"s1\">generative AI product all along<\/span><\/a>. According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/04\/16\/technology\/google-search-engine-ai.html\"><span class=\"s1\">New York Times<\/span><\/a>, in April it was revealed Microsoft was on the verge of a potential business deal with Samsung to replace Google Search with Bing as the homepage of Samsung\u2019s devices.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Murmurs in the media indicated that something was coming, but we initially didn\u2019t know if it would be a stand-alone chat (which turned out to be <a href=\"https:\/\/gemini.google.com\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Gemini<\/span><\/a>) or an integrated generative AI search that turned out to be the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products\/search\/generative-ai-search\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Search Generative Experience<\/span><\/a> (announced in early May at Google I\/O).<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Weeks later, the AI Overviews Experiment was opened up and SEOs began playing with the new AI Snapshot interface.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">When the December 2023 experiment ended, SEOs were skeptical that AI Overviews would ever make it into production.<\/p><p>In March, the 2024 Core Update and Spam Update stole headlines by integrating the Helpful Content System, devastating a range of niche sites, while independently, manual penalties were being levied on high-profile generative AI content sites.<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Meanwhile, in late March, Google began to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seroundtable.com\/google-testing-sge-ai-overviews-none-logged-in-users-37103.html\"><span class=\"s1\">test AI Overviews in the wild<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"p1\">To see AI Overviews publicly tested despite still generating some questionable (even problematic) results was an unexpected move by Google.

They have a rigorous production process that appears more cutthroat than a Ph.D. defending her dissertation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-48bf074 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"48bf074\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=tFq6Q_muwG0&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-de7673e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"de7673e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Update, on May 14th, 2024 at Google I\/O, the team announced the AI Overviews rebranding and a variety of new features including:<br \/><br \/>The Search Generative Experience has been rebranded as AI Overviews and will launch immediately.<br \/><br \/>AI Overviews uses:<br \/><br \/>\u2022 Real-time info (knowledge graph)<br \/>\u2022 Algorithmic Systems<br \/>\u2022 Customize Gemini for Search<br \/><br \/>AI Overviews can understand:<br \/><br \/>Multi-step reasoning in Google search: Ask multiple questions at the same time and conduct planning.

Google seems to be improving the speed of SGE, but that comes with a cost. One of the underlying subplots with SGE\u2019s implementation involves the potential cost to run it for most queries. It\u2019s expensive.

There&#8217;s a legitimate risk for smaller publishers to be unable to monetize their content if traffic dwindles. That might impact strategy and the number of competitors in a given field. Independent of AI Overviews, we&#8217;re seeing Google&#8217;s recent Helpful Content System, Spam Update, and Core update decimate affiliate content sites and many niche bloggers. There are a tremendous amount of false positives, but the impact has been pretty loud in the SEO community.<\/p><p>Will that reduce a generation of content creators? If the focus moves to different social media platforms, you might see a different format of search where Google starts to incorporate content from those channels in the same way that it depends more on Reddit and Quora.

SEO is changing.<\/p><p>Adapting will require a reframing of content production for search that works within the value that AI Overviews will deliver. We still need to appear across the entire buyer&#8217;s journey, but we&#8217;ll most likely need to:<\/p><ul><li>Focus more on the bottom of the funnel. Be discoverable where people are more likely to make a buying decision.<\/li><li>Use structured data and unique information (information gain) to stand out. Original ideas and proprietary information will be the USP.<\/li><li>Invest heavily in brand building. Google will continue to connect the real world and the online world.

We don&#8217;t know if AI Overviews will provide attributable reporting in Google Search Console. People will start searching with longer, more context-dependent, and nuanced queries.
