Yahoo announced updates across its search products: Yahoo Search launched Pivot Search, a ground-up rebuild of the third-largest US search engine combining traditional results with Yahoo Scout's AI answers; Scout is now out of beta, having processed over 3 billion answers since launching earlier this year.
Pivot Search evaluates each query and lets users pivot between traditional search results and a Scout AI answer within the same experience, adapting to user preference — e.g., switching to an AI answer for comparison-style questions.
