Google is making waves in global search technology as its flagship AI Mode breaks the English barrier, launching support for Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, and Brazilian Portuguese. This is more than a translation update; AI Mode, powered by the advanced Gemini 2.5 model, now brings Google's full spectrum of multimodal and reasoning tools into major new language markets, providing nuanced, locally relevant results that go deeper than traditional keyword searches.
After a US-only debut, then stepping out into the UK and India, AI Mode’s reach has ballooned to serve 180 countries, and now jumps the language gap. Users in newly supported languages can already access the AI-powered Search from a dedicated tab or via the search bar, asking complex questions and exploring web content in their own words.
At the core of this leap is Gemini 2.5, Google’s custom large language model, equipped with multimodal interpretation, which handles text, voice, and image queries seamlessly. AI Mode’s reasoning capabilities are paired with a novel “query fan out” approach, enabling the system to break down questions, fetch parallel results across subtopics, and return richer, more insightful answers compared to old-school search.
AI Mode isn’t just about returning direct responses. Recent updates have introduced “agentic features” to the US for premium users, such as making restaurant bookings, with future plans for appointment scheduling and ticket purchasing also in the works. These next-gen services hint at where Google is steering its search experience, toward a far more interactive, task-oriented AI assistant.
Google’s signals suggest that AI Mode is on track to become the new default search experience, reshaping discovery and web navigation worldwide. While some in the industry worry AI-led features could hit website traffic, Google remains confident that AI Mode will enrich, not erode, how people access information online.
With this strategic expansion, Google isn’t just adding new languages; it’s reimagining what “search” means in a global, AI-first era.
