Google is rolling out AI-generated summaries directly within Discover, its personalized news feed nestled within the Google Search app. It acts to further obscure news sources at a time when search traffic to publishers is disappearing. The AI summaries in Discover display overlapping icons in the top-left corner, indicating the number of cited stories. Google bug hunter AndellDam found that trending cards with AI Overview-like summaries were being tested on Google Discover in June. A Google spokesperson confirmed to TechCrunch that this is not a test, but a US launch on iOS and Android.
