Google Unveils New AI-Powered Search Features, Enhancing How We Explore the Web
Google has unveilied a series of updates powered by artificial intelligence.
From video and voice search to enhanced shopping capabilities, these new features are designed to provide users with faster, more versatile ways to discover information and explore the world around them.
One of the most significant advancements is the integration of AI into Google Lens.
Users can now record videos, ask questions out loud, and receive instant AI-driven insights.
For example, while visiting an aquarium, you can record fish swimming and ask, “Why are they swimming together?” AI will provide an overview along with helpful links. This feature is available globally for Search Labs users on Android and iOS.
In addition, Google Lens now supports voice input, enabling users to snap a photo and ask questions with their voice.
It also offers an upgraded shopping experience, identifying products and providing detailed information like price comparisons and reviews — all through the power of AI.
Another exciting development is the ability to instantly identify songs across various platforms, such as videos and websites, with the new “Circle to Search” feature.
Now available on over 150 million Android devices, this tool eliminates the need to switch apps to find that catchy tune you just heard.
For those seeking broader search results, Google is also rolling out AI-organized search pages in the U.S., beginning with recipes.
This feature organizes content in a more intuitive and visually appealing way, pulling from articles, videos, and forums to deliver a richer, more diverse exploration experience.
These updates mark Google’s continued focus on expanding search capabilities beyond text input, making it easier to search using images, audio, and video.
