    Google launches AI in search, bringing hopes for improved results while websites prepare for a decline in traffic.

    Decline in web traffic could translate into billions of dollars in lost ad revenue for publishers

    CA’S MOUNTAIN VIEW: Google unveiled its updated search engine on Tuesday, prioritising artificial intelligence-generated results over website links. This change is expected to expedite information searches but may also impede the flow of lucrative internet traffic.

    This week in the United States, hundreds of millions of people will see conversational summaries produced by the company’s AI technology at the top of the search engine results page, starting the transformation that was unveiled at Google’s annual developers conference.

    The AI summaries are intended to appear only when Google’s technology determines that doing so will be the fastest and most efficient way to pique a user’s interest. This is most likely to occur when discussing complex topics or when individuals are strategizing or brainstorming. When people conduct basic searches for items like store recommendations or weather forecasts, they will probably continue to see Google’s standard website links and advertisements.

    Google (GOOGL), +0.71% GOOG, +0.60% A year ago, Google started testing AI overviews with a small group of carefully chosen users. However, the company is now making AI overviews a standard feature in its search results in the United States before rolling it out globally. Google estimates that approximately 1 billion people will see the recurrent AI summaries in their search results by the end of the year.

    Google showcased advancements in a technology that is reshaping business and society at the crowded conference held at an amphitheatre near its headquarters in Mountain View, California, in addition to adding more artificial intelligence (AI) to its dominant search engine.

    The subsequent AI steps included smarter assistants, or “agents,” including a still-developing version called “Astra” that will be able to comprehend, explain, and remember things it is shown through a smartphone’s camera lens. Gemini is a technology that was unveiled five months ago. By inviting Demis Hassabis, the executive in charge of the technology, to speak live for the first time at its major conference, Google demonstrated its dedication to artificial intelligence.

    One of the biggest structural adjustments Google has made since its founding in the late 1990s is the addition of additional artificial intelligence to its search engine. This is a step that could lead to a radical shift in how people browse the internet, but it also creates opportunities for further development and innovation.

    Google CEO Sundar Pichai told a group of reporters, “This bold and responsible approach is fundamental to delivering on our mission and making AI more helpful for everyone.”

    Aware of the amount of focus on the technology, Pichai asked Google’s Gemini model how many times artificial intelligence (AI) had been brought up as he closed a nearly two-hour long series of presentations. The count was 120, and when Pichai said “AI” one more time, the total increased by one.

    The internet ecosystem, which primarily depends on digital advertising for financial survival, will face new risks as a result of the increased emphasis on AI.

    If the AI summaries outperform Google’s search engine advertising, which brought in $175 billion in revenue last year alone, Google will be hurt. Furthermore, if the AI summary pages are so educational that users click less on the website links that still show up lower on the search results page, this will negatively impact website publishers, which include everything from large media companies to entrepreneurs and startups that concentrate on more specialised topics.

    The de-emphasis on website links may have a negative impact on roughly 25% of traffic, according to habits that surfaced during Google’s AI overview testing last year, according to Marc McCollum, chief innovation officer of Raptive, a company that assists about 5,000 website publishers in monetizing their content.

    Such a drop in traffic could result in billions of dollars’ worth of lost advertising revenue, a crippling blow that would be inflicted by a type of artificial intelligence (AI) technology that extracts data from numerous websites that stand to lose money.

    “Up until the arrival of AI, Google and publishers had a fairly symbiotic relationship. Essentially, however, the Big Tech companies used this creative content to train their AI models,” McCollum said. “What we are witnessing now is that being utilised for their own commercial gain, essentially transferring wealth from independent small businesses to Big Tech.”

    However, during the technology’s testing, Google discovered that users were conducting even more searches as a result of the AI overviews “because they suddenly can ask questions that were too hard before,” Liz Reid, who manages the company’s search operations, said in an interview with the Associated Press. She refused to give any precise figures regarding the volume of links clicked during the AI overview tests.

    960x0 4

    Even after reading an overview of artificial intelligence, Reid claimed that people still prefer to click on websites. They want to delve further after reading the overview of AI. We’ll keep coming up with new ideas for the AI overview and for getting the most beneficial traffic to the website.

    Over the past 18 months, there has been a growing trend in the use of AI technology to summarise information in chatbots, such as Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT. This has raised legal concerns about whether the companies behind these services are using copyrighted material illegally to further their own agendas. The New York Times NYT, +0.10% filed a well-known lawsuit against OpenAI and its largest supporter, Microsoft MSFT, +0.69%, late last year, and it is centred around this particular allegation.

    Lawsuits may also be sparked by Google’s AI summaries, particularly if they divert visitors and ad revenue from websites that feel the company is unjustly making money off of their content. However, Jim Yu, executive chairman of BrightEdge, which helps websites rank higher in Google’s search results, stated that it’s a risk the company had to take as technology advances and is used in rival services like ChatGPT and upstart search engines like Perplexity.

    Yu declared, “This is unquestionably the next chapter in search.” It appears as though they are adjusting three key factors simultaneously: the ecosystem’s traffic flow, the search quality, and the monetization of that traffic. This is the largest search moment that has occurred in a very long time.
