Google is extending its “Preferred Sources” feature, which lets users steer Google’s recommendations toward chosen websites, to its AI-powered experiences in Search. After being introduced for regular search results, Preferred Sources is now available in both AI Mode and AI Overviews. This allows users to add specific sites they prefer so that Google’s AI-driven responses and summaries can prioritize those sources when compiling information. The feature is presented as a way to influence what publishers are emphasized in AI-generated answers, rather than changing the underlying availability of content. The reports note that users who have access to Preferred Sources can configure their preferred publishers and then use AI Mode or AI Overviews to generate results that reflect those choices. Overall, the expansion brings the same personalization approach from standard search result pages into Google’s AI interfaces, aiming to make AI responses align more closely with the sources the user selects.
