The AI search wave is real. Can media survive it?
Briefly

Google's newly launched AI Mode revolutionizes online search by transforming it into a conversational experience. Instead of merely presenting links, the AI assistant aims to complete tasks for users—like booking flights or finding local restaurants—directly from the search results. While the potential for disruption across various industries, including marketing and e-commerce, is significant, Google is cautious in fully embracing this change. Currently, AI Mode's usage depends on user engagement, as it exists alongside traditional search methods, and Google continues to prioritize its established business model.
AI Mode is designed to assist users in accomplishing search tasks directly, transforming queries into interactive conversations rather than just providing links.
The potential disruption of AI is substantial, impacting not just media but also marketing and e-commerce, fundamentally changing how users engage with online content.
