Google is bringing its AI-powered search experience to 180 additional countries, significantly expanding beyond its initial US, UK, and India rollout. While currently English-only, this global expansion enables more users worldwide to experience conversational search through the chatbot-style interface.
Ahead of this international launch, Google unveiled enhanced capabilities for AI Mode, beginning with restaurant reservation functionality. AI Ultra subscribers can now request dining recommendations by specifying desired details like cuisine type, party size, preferred location, and available time slots. The system intelligently scans multiple booking platforms to suggest suitable options.
AI Mode surfaces available booking times across partnered restaurant platforms
After reviewing AI-curated recommendations, users can seamlessly transition to complete reservations through integrated third-party services. Google has partnered with major booking platforms including OpenTable, Resy, and Tock to enable this streamlined experience. Early adopters can activate these capabilities through the Labs experimental features section.
Personalized Search Experience
For US-based early adopters participating in the AI Mode experiment, Google is rolling out contextual personalization for dining-related queries. The system now factors in past interactions and location history when generating recommendations, potentially remembering preferences like favored cuisines or previously researched restaurants.
Collaborative Search Features
New sharing functionality enables collaborative search sessions
A new sharing capability allows US users to generate public links of their AI Mode searches. This facilitates collaborative planning by letting others continue initiated searches. Shared links remain fully manageable, with options to review or remove them at any time.
