In all the news about Gemini 3 this morning – and there was a lot – this one stuck out:
Gemini 3 in AI search is going to create interactives and visuals for some select search results.
Read that again. Gemini 3 will create interactives and visuals for some search results.
In a paper the Gemini team published this morning, they demonstrated that AI-generated visuals and interactives are much more satisfying than other search content.
What this essentially means is Google is generating a website on the fly that answers the question of a searcher, particularly for information queries and unbranded queries.
And at least in testing, it’s what users want. The research paper Google released shows a 27% increase in results satisfaction with a generated web page rather than the content of the top search result.
What does that mean for us? Well, for those of us who are website owners, it means even less traffic for unbranded and informational search. Google will literally generate a net new web page rather than send us traffic.
As this rolls out, expect to see even less organic search traffic for unbranded and informational searches in the weeks and months to come. Be prepared to explain to stakeholders what’s happening, and what, if anything, you can do about it.
