Google is testing showing Google AI Overviews and generative AI results directly in the people also ask section. People also ask generally are featured snippet powered but now Google is testing using AI Overviews instead of featured snippets.

He said he saw this while signed out of Google, in US English. I cannot currently replicate this.
