These answers also take into account any previous interactions with the users and their follow up queries to provide more detailed explanations and pertinent information, which minimizes the amount of time users spend in looking for the right answers.
Also, as opposed to just showing links for results, SGE aims to offer in-depth summary of the search results while intending to understand context and answer queries more effectively.

Since SGE offers a more conversational type of search approach, this allows users to iteratively correct or modify their queries to receive accuracy in their search results. Another great feature of SGE is the graphic and interactive elements in answers which allow users to comprehend the presented information quickly and in a more structured manner.
