Google is rolling out AI-organized search results, and the new links and citations format in the Google AI Overviews.

AI-organized search results. The new AI-organized search results, as we covered in May, are now rolling out in the U.S. This includes search results organized by web, including articles, videos, forums and more.

Google said in its testing, searchers “have found AI-organized search results pages more helpful. And with AI-organized search results pages, we’re bringing people more diverse content formats and sites, creating even more opportunities for content to be discovered.”

Here is what it looks like:

New links and citations in AI Overviews. In August, Google began testing new links and citations in the AI Overviews – and now that new format is going live. Google is rolling this out globally to any country where AI Overviews is available.

More AI news. Google also announced other news about AI and Search. Here are the highlights:

  • AI Overview Ads. Ads are finally available for mobile users in the U.S.
  • New multimodal Lens features. Google is launching the ability to search with video in Lens and ask complex questions about moving images (available through Search Labs) and voice input in Lens, so you can ask questions out loud while snapping a photo (or recording video) to more easily search what you see.
  • Shop easily with Lens. Google is showing product information when using Lens for shopping, including a product’s price across retailers, reviews or where to buy.

Why we care. As Google and other search engines continue to innovate around AI and search, it is important to continue to watch the ongoing tests and launches of these features. AI Overviews have continued to evolve since it was announced as Search Generative Experience in May 2023. Plus, AI has been added to countless areas of Google Search and other products.
