Google is updating its search engine with additional artificial intelligence features. The company has assured users that traditional results will still be accessible alongside the new options.
A new search box is part of the changes, but Google has stated that this does not mean users will receive only AI responses. Officials emphasized that classic search results will continue to appear as before.
