With Google’s AI Overviews dominating search results, how long before AI providers start offering paid placement in those summaries?
Feels like we’re heading toward a future where ads aren't just links anymore, but part of AI results itself.

Sounds like what google wants is for you to never leave google.
Don't go to a website, just get your result directly on google, or worst case one of googles fully owned subsidiaries like youtube or maps or flights.
Thank god they could never figure out social media I guess?

I was at an event recently and on their facebook page, someone was arguing that "online it says entry is free", and posted a screenshot from an AI search result answer.

I saw a YouTube video where someone did the same with some legislation, but the interpretation was entirely wrong... but they printed it out and tried to use it to defend their position. It was cringe.
