AI Search: What is the Difference?
AI Mode was designed to deal with nuance. It can understand longer and more complex questions, and provide smart suggestions for follow-ups. It is intuitive, interactive and understands voice and image inputs.
Here are a few of the ways that this search differs from traditional searches:
AI-Powered Reactions
No more blue links on results pages. AI Mode presents structured and summarised answers sourced from all over the internet, helping users to plan trips, compare hotel prices, or explore destination in one neatly packaged response.
Follow-up Suggestions
Users can refine their search by selecting from suggested follow-up queries. They don’t have to start again, and the conversation is more natural.
Multimodal Input Support
Users can use text, images, or voice to search. AI Mode responds intelligently to any query, whether it is a picture of a brochure, a voice question, or a typed query.
Context & Transparency
Google’s workings are clearly shown. AI Mode contains links to original content, so users can explore and verify. According to Google’s latest articleIf the system doesn’t trust its AI-generated answers, it will default to standard search results.
