Google is rolling out two new AI-powered search upgrades to help users find information faster.

The biggest highlight is Google’s new “Just ask anything experience,” which makes it easier for users to transition from a regular search result into a back-and-forth conversation quicker. To activate the experience, all users have to do is ask a follow-up question from an AI Overview, which will activate a conversation in AI Mode.

Google said it began testing the feature late last year and the company has since received positive feedback, as many users found it helpful to be able to hop into a conversation while keeping context from the AI Overviews. This experience is meant to be particularly useful for complex search queries, in which the topic needs to be explored deeply and one quick snapshot response isn’t enough.

Additionally, the company is rolling out Gemini 3 as the default model for AI Overviews globally. This is noteworthy as Gemini 3 is the company’s most intelligent AI model with state-of-the-art reasoning capabilities. When the model launched in November 2025, it was only available in AI Mode in Search for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.

Not only did this mean less people could use the model, but it also meant that users could only access it through AI mode specifically, which added an extra step for users used to the convenience of Google Search. Now, more users can try the experience and access it directly from the normal Search page–a major win.
