Google has unveiled a new search experience that makes use of Gemini 3 technology to offer more sophisticated AI capabilities that comprehend user context through search results.

According to Robby Stein, VP of Product for Google Search, the update enables users to obtain answers through natural interactions while searching for both brief information and deep academic content.

Users can now ask any question they want because the new system allows them to make inquiries which they want to ask. Search now smoothly shifts from short AI Overviews to deeper exploration, letting users ask follow-up questions without losing context. The research process now operates as a conversational exchange instead of requiring users to conduct distinct search activities.

AI Overviews throughout the world now use Gemini 3 as their standard model which produces clearer summaries that match user needs in search results. The overviews provide users with direct access to AI Mode conversations which deliver detailed information about their inquiries.

The updated Search experience is now available globally on mobile, giving users easier access to AI-powered help wherever they are.
