Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said in the company's Q3 2026 earnings call that Google's AI-powered search modes do not drive traffic to Reddit or other websites. Reddit reported that search traffic in October dropped by more than 1 million referrals per week on average, with Huffman attributing part of this decline to how Google's AI Mode and AI Overviews have changed the search experience.
