Google Expands AI Mode Globally with Powerful New Agentic Features
Google AI Mode Goes Global: Enhanced Agentic Features Arrive
Google has announced a major global rollout of its innovative AI Mode, bringing the experimental Search feature to users in 180 new countries. Previously limited to the U.S., U.K., and India, AI Mode now enables English-speaking users across the globe to ask complex, multi-layered questions and receive personalized, conversational responses directly within Google Search.
What Is AI Mode?
AI Mode leverages advanced language models to allow users to:
- Ask detailed or multi-part questions in natural language
- Receive nuanced, context-aware answers
- Engage in interactive follow-up queries for deeper exploration
This transforms traditional search into a dynamic, AI-powered conversation tailored to user interests and needs.
New Agentic and Personalized Capabilities
Alongside the global launch, Google is introducing enhanced agentic features that go far beyond answering questions. U.S. users enrolled in the AI Mode experiment with a Google AI Ultra subscription can now:
- Book restaurant reservations by specifying preferences such as party size, time, location, and cuisine
- Let AI Mode scour multiple reservation platforms for real-time availability and provide a curated list of matching options
In the near future, these agentic capabilities will expand to include local service appointments and event ticket bookings, making Google Search a true digital assistant for everyday needs.
Smarter, More Personalized Results
AI Mode now also delivers search results tailored to individual preferences and search history. For example, if you frequently search for Italian cuisine or prefer outdoor seating, AI Mode will prioritize these options when suggesting dining venues.
Users can adjust their personalization settings within their Google Account to fine-tune these recommendations and privacy controls.
Collaborative Features: Share and Plan Together
A new "Share" button makes it easy to send AI Mode responses to friends or colleagues, who can then join the conversation. This is particularly helpful for group planning, such as organizing trips, parties, or collaborative research projects.
Who Can Access the Latest Features?
The advanced agentic capabilities are currently available to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. through the Labs experiment. Google plans to broaden both language and regional availability in the future, making these tools accessible to millions more users.
What’s Next?
With this global expansion and the introduction of advanced agentic features, Google is positioning AI Mode as a powerful tool for both everyday users and business owners. Whether you’re booking a table, managing appointments, or collaborating with others, AI Mode is set to redefine what users expect from search and digital assistants.
