How headlines are changing
Google is rolling out a test of automatic headline generation using artificial intelligence for the Discover feed. In some publications the new phrasings replace the original headlines; some of these variants have proven misleading or inaccurate.
For example, one article received a headline about an allegedly revealed device price, although the article text did not contain that information. In addition to headlines, the system creates short summaries of pieces; all generated elements carry the label "Generated by artificial intelligence, may contain errors".

The company describes the initiative as a small experiment available only to a portion of users.
The update is intended to help better understand topics before clicking through.

Google also recently clarified free image-creation limits in Nano Banana Pro and granted students in Ukraine a year of free access to AI Pro.
