Google expands AI-generated answers for search queries in 6 new countries

Google parent Alphabet said on Thursday it was expanding its AI-generated summaries for search queries to six new countries, just two months after it rolled back some capabilities following a problem-riddled launch.

The search giant made AI Overviews – which are displayed atop a search results page before traditional links to the Web – available to all US users in May after spending one year trialing a limited earlier version.
