Google Search as you know it is over
The era of the “ten blue links” is officially over.
At its Google I/O conference on Tuesday [5-19-26], Google unveiled an AI-powered overhaul of Search centered around a reimagined “intelligent search box” — what the company describes as the biggest change to this entry point to the web since the search box debuted more than 25 years ago.
Instead of returning a simple list of links, Google Search will drop users into AI-powered interactive experiences at times. Google is also introducing tools that can dispatch “information agents” to gather information on a user’s behalf.
While Google says that AI Mode is not the default experience, Search’s user interface encourages users to ask follow-up questions instead of scrolling down to the links to other pages.
This shift means that “searching the web” will increasingly be performed by AI agents rather than humans. Instead, people will focus more on acting on the information those agents provide instead of manually clicking links.
Links will become an afterthought with the coming changes to the Search results experience.. There’s little time left for publishers to adapt. The new search box is arriving this week, and generative UI is arriving this summer.

Couple of vids for education: what exactly just happened what does it mean - definitely be informed [note especially no links websites by the thousands will die on the vine never to be found by search]:
