Google Updates Robots Meta Tag Document To Include AI Mode
Google has updated its Search Central documentation to provide website owners with enhanced control over how their content appears in AI-powered search features, including the newly introduced AI Mode.
Key Updates:
Understanding AI Mode:
AI Mode is an experimental feature initially available to Google One AI Premium subscribers. It leverages a custom version of Gemini 2.0 to deliver a search experience fully powered by AI. The feature employs a "query fan-out" technique that issues multiple related searches across subtopics and data sources before synthesizing a comprehensive response.
These updates reflect Google's ongoing efforts to give publishers greater control over how their content is used in increasingly sophisticated AI-powered search features.
