Delhi : The addition of photos and videos will significantly improve Google's AI-powered Search Generative Experience (SGE_). The summary box at the top of search results will now display a richer multimedia experience for users who have enabled Search Labs' AI-based SGE feature. Google is actively working to speed up the display of this summary box and improve the contextual data offered alongside the links included inside it.

Even while SGE is still in the experimental stage, it clearly represents the future path of Google Search. In a recent earnings call, Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet, highlighted this point by saying, "It actually affords us the opportunity to break away from the prior limitations of search functionality. 

It motivates us to investigate novel ideas. Pichai continued, saying, "Over time, this will become the default search behavior. According to the study, Google is now aiming to synthesize and provide accurate, useful information rather of just curating suitable links for each search. There is a lot of promise in the integration of video content, especially from YouTube. Google has been incorporating YouTube videos more and more into search results over time, highlighting particular sections or points in films to respond to common searches.

The success of SGE still depends on the presentation's effectiveness and the contextualization of links. To help readers determine the recentness of the information on these web sites, Google has included a feature that displays publication dates next to the three articles shown in the summary box. Additionally, there have been hints that in-line links are being tested within the AI-generated summary, however this feature appears to still be in the testing stage. Within the context of Google Search, finding the ideal balance between offering wanted information and helping users find it on their own is a recurring difficulty.

Google will continue to work on enhancing SGE's performance.  SGE's loading time is currently subpar, frequently taking a long time to load behind other elements on a page. Even a few milliseconds can have a big impact on search. In June, Google revealed a 50% speed improvement for SGE.
