Recent Pew Research found that when Google shows an AI Overview summary, only 8% of users click through to actual websites (versus 15% when there's no AI summary). That's a 50% drop in clicks. For questions starting with “who,“ “what,“ “when,“ or “why,“ Google now triggers AI summaries 60% of the time. Users rarely click the sources cited in AI summaries; it happens in just 1% of visits to pages with AI Overviews.
Research highlighted in The Wall Street Journal posits that AI is already widening the chasm between top performers and everyone else.
Why it matters: This widening performance gap is expected to create significant workplace friction and resentment as top performers grow frustrated with colleagues who can't keep up.

Pew Research Center’s survey of adults in 25 countries shows concern outweighs enthusiasm toward AI’s growing presence in daily life. A median 34% are more concerned than excited, while only 16% are more excited than concerned. Awareness is broad but uneven, with 34% hearing a lot about AI and 47% hearing a little, heavily skewed toward higher-income countries. For regulation, 53% trust the EU, 37% trust the U.S., 27% trust China, and confidence in national governments ranges from 89% in India to 22% in Greece. Younger adults, men, the highly educated and heavy internet users report higher awareness and greater excitement than older, less-connected groups. Political alignment also matters: U.S. Republicans and Europe’s right-leaning voters show more faith in the U.S., while younger respondents in 19 nations place greater trust in China as an AI regulator.
The programme, Will AI Take My Job? aired Monday evening, investigating AI automation's impact on sectors from law to medicine.
Viewers discovered at the show's close that its host, Aisha Gaban, was entirely AI-generated.
The AI presenter said: “AI is going to touch everybody’s lives in the next few years. And for some, it will take their jobs. Call centre workers? Customer service agents? Maybe even TV presenters like me. Because I’m not real. In a British TV first, I’m an AI presenter.
