Google is bringing Gemini AI voice support to Search with AI mode for mobile users and it will give you the best of both worlds.
Google Search is getting AI and ability to talk with you
Google is quickly expanding the reach of Gemini AI assistant to all corners and we mean it. Search has come under threat because of the new AI tools but the company feels that both can co-exist and help you deliver the results.
Google Search Live is basically a mashup of Search and Gemini Live that works through the AI Mode on search for mobile users. Google is working out the schematics of the new feature with a limited user base for now but expect a full roll out in the coming months.
Google Search Live: Gemini For Search
We’ve already seen Gemini Live operate and talk to users by offering them a conversational experience. Search Live is doing that and giving you the usual search results on the screen. The new feature will work in AI mode for people in the US and you have to sign up for the Labs program that Google offers for its unreleased tools.
Once you do that, you will see a Live icon in the Google app on Android and iOS as well. You can tap on this icon to start conversing with Search and the AI-generated model will respond to any of your queries. And just like Gemini Live, you can continue the conversation without using any wake word to trigger the AI assistant and have follow-up queries for Search AI.
This new feature is also helpful as you don’t need to open Google every time to search for answers. Search Live caters to your voice queries and gives you visual details along with text. The app works in the background so that you can use other apps without disrupting the AI chatbot.
And yes, you can get a transcript of the chat you have with Search Live so that you can go back and check the history in case ever needed. Google is going to add camera-centric support so that you can show the visual to Search and let it respond based on what it can see.
