Won't this undermine googles own ad business?
As I understand it - Google's new plan is to keep people at google.com (etc) as absolutely long as possible with AI slop and the like. And - this is just my assumption - they'll cram in tons of news ads into the page.
The giveaway in the article is the example they give about having an ongoing live search for specific stock market parameters and how the Google search agent will recommend the 'services' you need including their market analysis product.
They're moving away from 'free' search to build a sales funnel towards their paid subscription products.
