How it works: Search Console’s generative AI performance report is now available to all sites worldwide, showing impressions, pages, countries & devices for content appearing in AI Overviews, AI Mode and AI features in Discover (click data isn’t included). Alongside it, a new toggle lets site owners opt their content out of Google’s generative AI features.
What’s the benefit? Brands can finally measure their visibility in AI search directly from Google. Google says opting out won’t affect standard web rankings – but opted-out sites won’t receive any traffic or impressions from AI features, so the decision should be weighed carefully.
