Google continues making changes to AI Mode in recent days. Today, Brodie Clark spotted another test google is now showing an ads carousel within the content itself, in addition to the ad unit at the bottom of the page.
This looks new, since Google previously only showed ads at the bottom of AI Mode responses. Showing a carousel inline within the content itself is a notable shift.
Here is what Brodie wrote on x
“The shopping ads carousel is now showing inline within the response for the first time, alongside an additional ad unit at the bottom.”
Here is the screenshot he shared.
This adds another ad placement within AI Mode, giving Shopping ads more visibility by placing them directly within the flow of the AI-generated response, rather than confining them to the bottom of the page.
