Google Search is not just having its AI Overviews link back to itself but also search features like Things To Know. This is all while Google touts how it is seeing impressive growth in search results (artificially inflated?) and while supposedly prioritizing traffic to publishers (made up also?).

I should note, this is also being tested in the people also ask section.

Here is an example of me expanding one of the "Things To Know" where Google is showing several dotted links in the response, they all link back to show you more Google Search results.
