Google has announced a new perspective filter that will bring a human angle to search results.
The generic search results that users see on the platform are based on a variety of factors, including dates, authors, ratings, and proximity. They were decided by the company’s algorithm based on a host of factors. The new perspective feature brings in opinions and recommendations from living and human beings.
