I didn't ignore it, I actually spent some time researching to find out what Google means by "Gemini Apps" (plural) and whether it includes search AI overview, and I can't get a clear answer anywhere.

Of course, Gemini App (singular) means the mobile app. But it seems that the term Gemini Apps (plural) is being used by Google to refer to any way in which users can access the Gemini models, and also they do clearly state that a version of Gemini isused to generate the search overviews.

So it still seems reasonably likely, until they confirm otherwise, that this median includes search overview.

"This section presents the environmental impact metrics for the Gemini Apps AI assistant" is this also not specific enough?

		No, because unless they state otherwise we should assume that they consider search overview to be an AI assistant (they definitely believe this) and also that it's one of the Gemini Apps. Look, there's not enough information to answer this within the paper. I'm not willing to give Google the benefit of the doubt on vague language, and you are. I'm assuming they're a huge basicappy evil corporation whose every publication is gone over and reworded by marketing to make them look good, and you're assuming... whatever. That's fine by me, we disagree. Let's stop here.
