Google Robot Coding

Google AI Overviews, even when not signed into a Google Labs project, is providing coding and programming examples and help. This started sometime yesterday, I believe, and before, I believe you had to opt into a Search Labs experiment to trigger this.

James F Gibbons posted about this on X and I was able to replicate this, signed out, on my Mac, using Chrome.

It seems to work for a number of coding related questions.

I do wonder what impact this will have on sites, like Stack exchange, and others, that provide coding help.

Forum discussion at X.
