  • Google has finally announced the much-awaited AI Mode for Search.
  • The feature supports more complex, multi-part queries and allows users to ask follow-up questions.
  • It is available as a limited opt-in experience to some Google One AI Premium subscribers.

We’ve been tracking an in-development AI-powered feature for Google Search over the past few months. Dubbed AI Mode, this feature is expected to offer users a conversational search experience similar to Gemini Live. Google has officially announced the feature today, and it’s now available as a limited, opt-in experience in Labs.

In a blog post, Google says that AI Mode expands on the capabilities currently available with AI Overviews in Search. It is powered by a custom version of Gemini 2.0 and is designed to handle queries “that need further exploration, comparisons, and reasoning.”
