[Обзор]

• AI Mode is Google’s latest Search enhancement, and it’s actually pretty good.
• So far you’ve been able to access AI Mode in the Google Android app through a shortcut beneath the main Search bar.
• The app is now experimenting with prominent AI Mode placement, right in that top bar.

Google Search has changed a lot over the years, and while in the past that’s involved a lot of subtle refinement to the sort of results a given query would generate, over the past year or so we’ve seen Google make some of the most controversial and sweeping changes to Search yet. New AI-powered results have the potential to streamline access to information — assuming that AI can get all the details right. The latest incarnation is Google’s AI Mode, and it’s already pretty impressive. If you haven’t yet, you might be giving it a try soon, as Google starts experimenting with giving AI Mode some prominent placement in its Android app.

Pull up the Google app on Android recently, and you’ve been presented with a handy Search bar, augmented with shortcut icons for voice input and Lens. Then beneath that we’ve had a row of shortcuts to stuff line the translation and homework modes of Lens, as well as this new AI Mode.
