Google is taking its AI-powered search to the next level with a new experimental feature called AI Mode. This feature, currently available in Google Labs, builds on AI Overviews but offers more advanced reasoning, deeper thinking, and multimodal capabilities. The goal is to help users with complex and nuanced questions that might have previously required multiple searches. Let’s delve into the details of this new feature.
AI Mode: All you need to know
AI Mode is powered by a custom version of Gemini 2.0. It enhances search by offering detailed comparisons, deeper exploration of topics, and intelligent responses. Users can ask follow-up questions and receive helpful links to explore further.
For example, if you search “What’s the difference in sleep tracking features between a smart ring, smartwatch, and tracking mat?”, AI Mode will take a multistep approach to make a plan, conduct searches to find information and adjust the plan based on what it finds.
“What makes this experience unique is that it brings together advanced model capabilities with Google’s best-in-class information systems, and it’s built right into Search. You can not only access high-quality web content, but also tap into fresh, real-time sources like the Knowledge Graph, info about the real world, and shopping data for billions of products,” Google explains.
It uses a “query fan-out” technique, which means it runs multiple searches across different subtopics and sources. This approach helps provide broader and more in-depth responses compared to traditional search results.
When will AI mode be available?
AI Mode is currently an early experiment in Google Labs, and it’s expected to roll out more widely once testing is complete. Google aims to make searching for complex topics faster, smarter, and more intuitive with this feature.
