Google announced a new “AI Mode” for its search engine in the United States, aiming to make searching feel more like talking to an expert who can answer almost any question.

Google is also upgrading its search with its latest AI technology, called Gemini 2.5, and plans to add new tools soon — like automatically buying concert tickets and searching using live video.
In another big move, Google revealed plans to return to the smart glasses market. Their new Android XR-powered glasses will include a hands-free camera and an AI assistant you can control with your voice.
