People come to Search for an incredibly wide range of questions, sometimes to find information quickly, such as sports scores or the weather, where all you need is a simple result. But for complex questions or tasks where you need to explore a topic in depth, you should be able to seamlessly leverage a powerful conversational AI experience.
Today we’re rolling out two updates that bring us closer to this vision of Search: the ability to ask whatever is on your mind, no matter how long or complex, and find exactly what you need. First, we’re making Gemini 3 the new default model for AI overviews globally, so you can get the best-in-class AI answer right on the search results page, for questions where it’s useful. Second, we’re making the transition to a conversation even smoother. Now, you can easily ask a follow-up question directly from an AI overview and jump in and out conversationally with AI Mode. In our testing, we found that people prefer a naturally flowing experience in a conversation and that asking follow-up questions while maintaining the context of AI overviews makes the search more useful.
It’s a seamless experience with highlighted links to keep exploring: a quick snapshot when you need it and a deeper conversation when you want it. So next time you have a question, find the nearest Google search bar and ask anything.
