Austin – November 10, 2026 -- Users clicked traditional search results in 8% of visits that included a Google AI summary, versus 15% of visits without one, according to Pew Research Center data cited by B2B email platform Breaker. Links inside the AI summaries drew clicks in just 1% of visits.

Even when a click occurs, it often reveals little about the visitor's identity or fit as a buyer. The Interactive Advertising Bureau found that 95% of surveyed publishers reported moderate or significant effects from large language model (LLM)-driven discovery.
