Google has launched Search Live, a new voice-powered AI mode available in the Google app for Android and iOS in the U.S. as part of the AI Mode experiment in Labs. This feature allows users to have natural, back-and-forth voice conversations with Google Search, receiving AI-generated audio responses while exploring relevant web links displayed on screen.
sers can ask follow-up questions seamlessly, even while multitasking or using other apps, and can view transcripts of the conversation to switch between voice and text input. Search Live is powered by a custom version of Google’s Gemini model with advanced voice capabilities and leverages Search’s high-quality information systems to deliver reliable answers.
The feature is designed for convenience on the go, such as when packing for a trip, and Google plans to expand it with camera integration to enable users to show Search what they see in real time in the coming months.
