In another case, when an individual asked, “Does Google Search violate antitrust law?” It replied and said, “Yes".

Here's what people said about AI overview:

Prior to AI Overview, which was made available to US users last week, Google had Knowledge Panels, which are informational panels that show up at the top of some searches and encourage users to ask Google questions directly instead of going through to a result, reported Vox.

According to Business Insider, AI Overview is presently available for users in the United States, and it will soon be available in other locations. Similarly, Google stated that it would first test advertisements for AI Overviews in the United States and then in other locations.
