Gmail’s AI summaries now appear automatically

Google Workspace's Gmail now auto-generates AI-powered summaries for lengthy email threads, appearing atop the emails on mobile devices. Previously, users manually activated these features. Still available for manual requests, the AI summaries will update with new replies. While currently for mobile and English-language emails only, the feature might later extend to desktop users. Users can opt-out by deactivating the ‘Smart features’ in settings.

Surprising no one, new research says AI Overviews cause massive drop in search clicks

Research by the Pew Research Center reveals Google's AI Overviews substantially reduce web traffic by cutting search result clicks in half. Since Google integrated these AI summaries, which now appear in one in five searches, users rarely click on source links, primarily from sites like Wikipedia and Reddit. This shift limits user exploration, risking misinformation due to AI's inaccuracies. Despite declining web traffic, Google's profits continue to rise.

Scammy AI-generated books are flooding Amazon

AI-generated books are flooding Amazon, with authors like Melanie Mitchell and Fei-Fei Li falling victim to knock-offs of their own works. These AI-generated imitations often appear as shorter, poorly-written versions of the originals and add little value for readers. Deepfake-detection software confirmed that these books are highly likely AI-generated. Although Amazon took down some of these imitations upon being notified, the issue persists. The legality of these summaries remains uncertain, with experts divided on whether they constitute fair use or plagiarism. The publishing industry is struggling to address this problem, and Amazon has yet to implement proactive measures.

Google brings AI answers in Search to new countries

Google's parent company, Alphabet, has announced that it is expanding its AI-generated summaries for search queries to six new countries. This comes just two months after the feature was rolled back due to problems with accuracy. The AI Overviews feature, which provides summaries at the top of search results, was widely criticized for providing factually inaccurate information. Google has since made updates to the product, restricting the queries that display AI answers and curbing user-generated content from websites like Reddit. The feature is now being launched in Brazil, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, and Britain, with hyperlinks to relevant websites also being added.
