If you feel like search got weird this year, you are not imagining it. Between Google’s AI Overviews, ChatGPT search and answer engines like Perplexity, users are skipping the old “10 blue links” workflow and jumping straight to synthesized answers. Google frames AI Overviews as a layer that pulls from multiple sources and still links…
If you have ever refreshed a “best X tools” page, watched it climb for two weeks, then disappear the moment a competitor ships a new update, you already understand the game. AI search just makes that volatility more visible. You are not only competing for blue links anymore. You are competing to be one of…

The uncomfortable truth is that search has shifted from a traffic layer to an influence…
If you feel like everyone is “doing AI” but very few teams can point to real revenue impact, you are not imagining it.
