A new trend has emerged as AI ad disclosures are now appearing on paid text ads within the Google Local Map Pack.
This development showcases Google’s ongoing commitment to transparency in advertising practices, particularly with ads that are created or edited using AI.

The visible components from the My Ad Center interface provide details including how the ad was created, the rationale behind its display, and a feedback option for users. The interface emphasizes the need for clear communication on AI-generated content, aligning with evolving disclosure standards worldwide.
Advertisers may start noticing these disclosures as part of new compliance measures in regions including the EU and New York.
