Google will also place ads below the AI Overviews, which are the summary boxes at the top of the search results, for both mobile and desktop in the U.S. When you ask for tips on how to do something or for suggestions on products, you might see promotions from different brands included in the AI’s answers.
➔ How Businesses Can Utilize It as Growth Opportunity?
To succeed in AI-driven search, brands should focus on understanding users’ search queries and create better ads with enriched product/service information. Load it with images, prices, and reviews to double the impact.

➔ Story Crux
Treefort Media made an app called Storyrabbit. It tells you short audio stories (60–90 seconds) about movies and film history, and it uses AI to make it sound like the famous director Orson Welles is telling them. Storyrabbit uses your location so it can tell stories that match where you are, making the experience more personal. For example, if you’re near an old movie theater, it might tell you a story about the history of cinema in that area.
➔ Smart Ways Businesses Can Ride This Wave
Brands can offer any particular subject-related immersive experiences with recognizable voices. For instance, celebrity narrations can be used to create experiences in stores or venues. They can use these multisensory experiences to increase customer involvement in their products or services.
3- Introducing Amazon’s AI Audio Summaries
Date: May 21, 2025
➔ What Actually Happened?
Amazon has recently introduced an AI feature in its app. Its name is Hear the Highlights. It creates short audio summaries of important product details and customer reviews by using AI. The purpose of this feature is to help shoppers make quicker and better choices when they think of buying something. They can listen to the audio by tapping a button. Although this feature doesn’t work for every product on the app, Amazon plans to make it available for every product and customer in the coming months.
➔ Translating This Tech for Your Business Growth
Brands can make it easier for customers to connect and understand their products by adding short, AI-made audio summaries to their product pages. This is great for items that need more thought before buying. They can capitalize on this audio content through subscription services, telling users they can understand better if a product is the right fit for them through these audio clips.
4- Introducing Deep Think and Mariner
Date: May 20, 2025
➔ Notes We Took
At this event, a tool named Deep Think was introduced that breaks down problems into smaller chunks, guiding people on how to look at them and solve them. This app uses AGI, allowing it to think like a human, giving you non-generic advice on how to solve a problem in the practical world. Demis Hassabis also introduced Mariner, a Chrome extension that can shop on its own by thinking deeply and then taking action. It’s like a personal assistant that helps people with buying decisions.
➔ How Brands and Businesses Can Capitalize On This?
By using AGI technology, you can introduce apps that understand people and offer them what they need. For example, you can use a travel app that deals with situations when your travel plan changes because of delays or any other issue. The app should also book tickets in advance for you, minimizing work from your end.
