Reply To: What are your realistic takes on the new Google AI mode. Are websites cooked?

Honestly, I don’t think websites are dead.

But yeah, the low-effort ones are probably in trouble. If a site is just giving the same basic AI-style answer everyone else has, AI Mode can replace that pretty easily.

But for local searches or buying decisions, people still want to check the actual site, reviews, pricing, proof, examples, all that. So I’d say lazy content is cooked, not websites.
