Google search ranking volatility has increased significantly in 2024, by 26%, with some industries seeing even bigger jumps.

Google Search launches Ask for me service
Google has launched a new experiment in Search Labs called "Ask for me." This feature uses artificial intelligence to call businesses on your behalf to find out the prices and availability of services. This amazon data could be useful, for example, for finding car repair shops that offer oil changes or other similar services.
To access this experiment, you need to sign in to Search Labs and search for queries related to the service, such as "oil change near me." Google will then show you the "Ask for me" option. This feature uses the same Duplex technology that is used to make restaurant reservations through Search and Maps. Businesses can opt out of this service, and Google is transparently disclosing the calls. This could be another way for Google to send more leads to businesses. This is an experiment and it's not certain whether it will be fully implemented.
