Since mid-July 2026 we have been seeing Google Discover cards pointing to discover.aigc.
The URLs all share the same shape:
https://discover.aigc/?id=5691595089221165251
https://discover.aigc/?id=13141930252401357277A numeric id, no path, no readable slug.
Funfact: The domain resolves to nothing. .aigc TLD is not even delegated.
The related cards however do carry real headlines and content from real publishers.
The cards show a media, a proper image an headline, yet tapping it errors.

Three days took it from near zero to almost 3% of English Discover share of voice (visibility %). French follows the same curve one day behind, at roughly a third of the level. The 26 July figures cover part of the day only, and both were still climbing when we measured.
It is not limited to English and French. On 25 July, Japanese was in fact higher than English at 4.68 %, with Korean at 1.51 % and Spanish at 0.24 %. On 26 July, Japanese held at 4.71 % and Korean kept rising to 2.27 %.
This is a significant part of the impressions sent to a black hole.
