At a demonstration for reporters held ahead of the announcement, searching "how do I get a grass stain out of jeans?" yielded AI-generated instructions followed by ads for Tide and OxiClean laundry products.

The company will not share ad revenue with publishers whose material is cited in AI Overviews, a company spokesperson said.
