"Google is changing the color design of the AI Overview link cards. Previously, they had a blue background; now they appear with a white background. This change draws more attention toward the in-answer bubble links that rolled out last month, which remain in blue with this experiment."
"I personally like the blue shade, it makes the citations feel more noticeable, so I can then not click on them. The new formatting being tested for citations is also present in AI Mode, and the links definitely pop more."
Google is experimenting with a new design for AI Overview citation cards, changing them from a blue background to a white one. This change aims to draw more attention to the in-answer bubble links, which remain blue. The new formatting has been observed by several users, including Sachin Patel, Glenn Gabe, and Brodie Clark. Some users express a preference for the previous blue shade, as it made citations more noticeable. The testing is currently ongoing on desktop platforms.
