Google Launches AI-Powered Audio Overviews for Search
Google is adding a new feature to its search engine called Audio Overviews.
This new feature generates short audio summaries, like a mini-podcast, answering your search questions.
These are powered by the latest AI models from Google called Gemini, and they provide a way to listen to information rather than read it.
The feature can be found through Google Labs for users in the US.
