Google\u2019s AI Mode has generated controversy by synthesizing multiple recipes into what some have taken to calling Frankenstein recipes. This new update aims to fix that by making it easier to tap and see a link to the recipe sites.<\/p> <h2>Change To How AI Mode Displays Recipes<\/h2> <p>What Google did was to create an attractive display of recipes that when clicked opens a side panel that displays recipe images and a summary of the recipe. The user can click from there to visit the recipe site and explore the dish in more depth.<\/p> <p>Robby Stein said that this change is already rolled out. I tried variations of Stein\u2019s example keyword phrase (easy recipes for two) and was able to spawn a recipe panel, what I think he\u2019s referring to. On the left is a summary and in this specific AI Mode results, I had to scroll down to get to the images that can be clicked.<\/p> <p><iframe class=\"sej-iframe-auto-height\" id=\"in-content-iframe\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-json\/sscats\/v2\/tk\/Middle_Post_Text\"><\/iframe><\/p> <h3>Screenshot Of AI Mode Without Images To Click<\/h3> <p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-1-651.jpg\"  width=\"500\" height=\"253\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-568815 small-img\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-1-651-384x194.jpg 384w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-1-651-425x215.jpg 425w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-1-651-480x243.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-1-651.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Google Updates AI Recipe Results To Send More Traffic via @sejournal, @martinibuster\u63d2\u56fe\" alt=\"Google Updates AI Recipe Results To Send More Traffic via @sejournal, @martinibuster\u63d2\u56fe\" \/><\/p> <p>Scrolling down the page reveals a new topic with images that can be clicked.<\/p> <h3>Screenshot Of AI Mode Images That Can Be Clicked<\/h3> <p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-2-111.jpg\"  width=\"647\" height=\"585\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-568817 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-2-111-384x347.jpg 384w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-2-111-425x384.jpg 425w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-2-111-480x434.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.searchenginejournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ai-mode-screenshot-2-111.jpg 647w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 647px) 100vw, 647px\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Google Updates AI Recipe Results To Send More Traffic via @sejournal, @martinibuster\u63d2\u56fe1\" alt=\"Google Updates AI Recipe Results To Send More Traffic via @sejournal, @martinibuster\u63d2\u56fe1\" \/><\/p> <p>The problem with this AI Mode result is that it\u2019s not clear that those images can be clicked.
