Now you will be able to ‘talk’ with the search engine to find what you want

You like it or not, the search for Google will not be the same again. Gone is the simple blank page that showed the best results in a list; Now we are in the AI ​​era, and that implies a series of important changes.

Some of these changes have already seen them, as the new view created with AI (ai overViews), which replaces traditional results with an explanation generated by Gemini’s artificial intelligence.

But that is just the beginning. Google wants Let’s not press a search resultwho falls, and with the new function, we will not have to do it. It is called Search Live, and was announced in the last Google I/O.

Now, some users are starting to meet the new experience In the official Google appwhich is pre -installed in the vast majority of smartphones and tablets with Android in Spain.

The new Search Live function appears within the Google app, such as A new button that replaces Google Lens button that allows us to attach an image or a photo to our search.

In fact, the function It seems to be based on Gemini Livesince the icon and interface are exactly the same; Recall that Gemini Live is the AI ​​version that is capable of following a conversation with the user.

The new button opens the Search Live function, which is basically Gemini Live, but for search; In other words, it is a conversational experience, in which we can talk to an AI to find what we want.

The idea of ​​Search Live is that we can simply ask Google what we want, instead of having to introduce the search terms as always; The AI ​​will be able to understand what we want and answer our questions.

Users, in turn, can ask AI to clarify those answers, obtaining more information from other results or specifying concrete details of an issue. We can even get out of the app and continue the background conversation.

Search Live is also capable of Use the camera of our mobile as context to our questions; It is based on the same technology as Project Astra, which will also be used in the next augmented reality glasses with Android XR.

Search Live is another experience based on AI that aims to convince us that Google’s commitment to this technology will help us in the long term. But this launch makes more sense when we look at what the competition does.

Remember that one of Google’s biggest rivals in this new AI market is perplexity, a AI -based search engine that is already able to do many of the things that Google’s new functions do.

PERPLEXITY IS REMOVING Users to Googleand even removing commercial partners; This same week it has been known that Samsung and Apple are negotiating with Perplexity to integrate their technology into their mobiles instead of Google search engine.

In Google they seem to have panicked for the sudden success of Perplexity, and hence the majority of the news announced in the search engine this year are aimed at offering a similar experience.

The new Search Live function is reaching the users of the Google app, both in Android and in iOSalthough its launch in Spain has not yet been confirmed by the company, as it has made its view created with AI.
