Google's new AI features, including AI Overviews and AI Mode, prioritize summarizing information over traditional search links, effectively burying the web content that once drove its search engine. While these changes aim to enhance user experience with more direct answers, they threaten the relationship between Google and the websites it relies on for data, raising concerns about the future of online content and monetization. The shift reflects Google's aggressive strategy to dominate the AI landscape, possibly at the expense of the web ecosystem.
