India, June 16 -- Google has introduced a new feature in its search engine called Audio Overviews, designed to offer users spoken summaries of search results. This feature builds on Google's recent efforts to integrate artificial intelligence into its platform, which aims to offer an alternative way to access information.

Audio Overviews use AI technology from Google's latest Gemini models to create brief, conversational audio summaries which last between 30 and 45 seconds. These summaries resemble a podcast-style explanation of the search topic. Alongside the audio, the interface displays relevant web pages, allowing users to explore the topic further or verify facts.

Audio Overviews first appeared in Google's NotebookLM tool last year...
