Google updates search to fight AI 'slop' in 2025AI News & Trends

Google updates search to fight AI 'slop' in 2025

Google is updating its search to fight against "AI slop," which is low-quality, repetitive, or fake content made by machines. Search engines are now better at spotting and hiding this kind of content, and they give higher ranks to pages with real, original information. Brands using too much AI-made stuff risk losing trust, as people become less likely to buy from them or recommend them. To stay trusted, companies need to have humans check their content, make unique research, and make sure their websites are easy for new search systems to understand. Using AI as a helper, not a replacement, is key to keeping quality high and audiences happy.

Right now, only this one type of ad is live, but OpenAI plans to add more creative ad formats in the future. The ads are different from Google's and match with what people are asking about, not just keywords. Early results show people click on these ads much more than regular online ads, and only some users see them while premium subscribers have no ads.
