Google Expands AI Chatbot Search Results to Some Users Without Opt-In
- Google is expanding its AI-powered chatbot search results (SGE) to some non-opted-in users to get more feedback
- SGE will be enabled for certain complex search queries where chatbots may be helpful, like "how do I get marks off painted walls"
- It's unclear if the non-opted-in experience will have the same prominent chatbot presentation
- Allowing SGE by default could be very confusing for users used to the traditional search results
- The new head of Google Search previously led the SGE team, so we may see more AI integration in the future
