Google has begun rolling out major quality of life (QoL) updates to its AI Mode in Search. This includes new tools to help users browse through images and conversations.
Users can now search using images and voice in addition to the traditional means of text. Rather than typing specific keywords, users can try to describe what they need by dictation.
A couple of examples are ‘minimalist studio ideas’ or ‘jeans that aren’t too baggy’. Results will show users curated images that are linked to more details.
In addition, users can even refine searches with follow-up prompts like ‘is the pair of jeans available in X size?’
Search is also now fully multimodal, which means uploading or capturing photos is now a way to start a query. This also works on mobile, where you can ask questions about particular parts of an image.
Meanwhile, shopping is now handled by Google’s Shopping Graph. This tracks over 50 billion listings that are updated hourly. Results include product details, availability, reviews, discounts, and color options from local and global retailers.
The update also improves how the browser uses context through Gemini 2.5 and Google Lens. The tools analyze finer details, performing background queries to deliver more accurate results.
The new update for AI Mode in Search is currently available in English for users in the US. For those looking forward to this, more languages and a wider rollout has yet to be announced but we’ll keep readers updated.
