Google has begun testing an updated search page, and the first casualty of this is the legendary “I’m Feeling Lucky” button, which has been unexpectedly replaced by the “AI Mode” option. Now, instead of instant redirection to the first search result, users gain access to a generative AI chatbot that not only answers the query but also offers conversation for a deeper understanding of the topic.
The first reports of these changes appeared among users of the experimental Labs platform, and although Google has not officially confirmed a wide rollout, intrigue around the new feature is growing. A company representative confirmed that testing has already started, although a final decision on implementing potential changes has not yet been made.
This update appeared ahead of the anticipated presentation at Google I/O, where the company plans to share news about the development of search capabilities with AI support. Meanwhile, according to one of the top managers at Apple, the number of search queries through Google on Safari decreased for the first time last month — and the reason for this is said to be the growing popularity of AI-based tools.
Despite the fact that “I’m Feeling Lucky” was already perceived more as a nostalgic element, its sudden replacement sparked lively discussion among users. Some still find the beloved button in other parts of the interface, but the new model of interaction with search — through generative AI — is becoming an increasingly noticeable part of Google’s product.
