Google Machine Learning Sentence Compression Algorithms Powers Features Snippets

The other day, I covered at Search Engine Land a Wired article named Google's hand-fed AI now gives answers, not just search results. The article explains that Google is now using "sentence compression algorithms" as of this week in the desktop search results. Sentence compression algorithms is Google's way of extracting the best answer for a query to be displayed in the featured snippets. Of course, this is not just used for featured snippets but also for Google Home responses, Google Assistant and more. Which is why it is important that Google build a better way to get more answers.
