Google is rolling out a subtle yet impactful change to its AI Overview feature, aiming to refine users’ interactions with AI-generated search results.
Instead of the large, obvious “Show More” button, users will now see a smaller, less noticeable “More” link at the bottom of the snippet. This might seem like a minor tweak, but it could have big implications for how users engage with Google’s AI.
Along with this, the Gemini logo and AI Overview header are also being tested for removal. So, what’s behind this redesign, and what does it mean for users and SEO professionals?
Google’s Interface Change: What’s New and Why It Matters
In this latest experiment, Google is dialing down the prominence of the “Show More” button, replacing it with a subtle “More” link.
Previously, this large button was the gateway to expanding the AI Overview, giving users quick access to a full response and link cards for deeper insights into the information.
The new “More” link still functions the same way—allowing users to expand and collapse the AI-generated snippet—but its smaller size makes it far less eye-catching.
