Americans have mixed feelings about AI summaries in search results
Many search engines like Google or Bing now use artificial intelligence (AI) to provide users with short answers or overviews at the top of the page that are separate from traditional search results.
A majority of U.S. adults (65%) at least sometimes come across these AI summaries in search results. That includes 45% who see them extremely often or often, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. A smaller share (17%) say they rarely or never come across these summaries.
An additional 13% say they aren’t sure how often they see these summaries, which are a relatively new feature from search engines.
