Google is expanding AI Overviews for definition searches by default, so searchers no longer need to click “Show more” to see the full overview, Search Engine Roundtable reports.
Why it mattersThe change could make an AI-generated answer take up the visible results area, with web links further down the page. Search Engine Roundtable’s example shows users needing to scroll to reach them. For people looking up definitions, that is one less click. For sites publishing them, it may mean less immediate visibility. The search results page, it seems, has found another way to make scrolling part of the deal.
Discuss: Should Google put definition overviews first by default, or should people have to ask for the expanded AI answer?
