What you need to know

❖ Google is rolling out AI overviews in Google Search, also known as Search Generative Experience, to all U.S. users.
❖ AI overviews replace "featured snippets" in many cases, summarizing web pages, sometimes without linking to the sites they summarize.
❖ Google's plan to cut publishers out of Search is a shortsighted one, as there will be less incentive to publish the new content that AI models depend on.
❖ The company earns most of its revenue through digital ads, and it's unclear how Google will monetize SGE instead.
