TLDR

Google is testing an AI Overview experience that automatically expands to full AI Mode responses without requiring users to click a button.

Optimixed Overview

Optimixed's original report on this story.

Google is experimenting with a revised AI Overview presentation that defaults to showing fuller, more conversational answers—the equivalent of what currently appears in dedicated AI Mode—rather than requiring searchers to click a separate "Show more" button. The test also loads the follow-up "Ask anything" chat box by default, as reported by SERoundtable.
