Google is expanding the Search Generative Experience (SGE) by allowing youths in the United States to join up for it.
Google is particularly allowing 13 to 17-year-olds to access the Search Generative Experience in Search Labs, as well as SGE while browsing, so that “they, too, can benefit from the helpful capabilities generative AI has to offer.” According to prior company research, consumers aged 18 to 24 are the most satisfied with SGE because they prefer being able to ask follow-up questions in a conversational manner.
In terms of safety, Google has reviewed research and specialists in the field to ensure that the “developmental needs” of teens are met. SGE now includes additional safeguards:
For example, we’ve strengthened safeguards for outputs relating to unlawful or age-gated substances, as well as bullying, among other difficulties. And, as additional feedback comes in, we will continue to enhance how our systems respond, collaborating with experts along the way to better protect kids.
As part of the SGE setup process for teens, Google will release an AI Literacy Guide. It’s intended to tackle “key questions about how generative AI works, its capabilities and its limitations, as well as tips for how teens and families can use it responsibly.”
Similarly, SGE will have a “About this result” section to explain how everything works. In the future, that panel will appear for individual links in SGE answers, just as it does for any other Search result.

The most recent upgrade today improves Google’s AI models’ detection of queries with a false or objectionable premise, which results in “an AI-powered response that unfortunately appears to validate said premise.” SGE will, in addition to detection, “respond with higher-quality, more accurate responses.”Additionally, you can also read about- How does Google’s AI-Powered Search Look Like
In the future, Google wants massive language models to “critique their own first draft responses on sensitive topics, then rewrite them based on quality and safety principles.”
It appears to be Bard’s new ability to double-check responses manually.
