Google has announced a significant update to its search engine, integrating generative AI to overhaul the traditional 10 blue links format. This change, described by experts as a 'change in the world order,' aims to provide summarized answers to search queries. Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Google's head of search Liz Reid have discussed the implications of this update. However, the update has raised concerns among publishers and web creators about potential reductions in website traffic and the impact on advertising revenue. Critics warn that the AI-powered search engine could be 'catastrophic' for news publishers and may even be a death blow for some startups.
