AI Mode can now help you search and explore visually

We’ve all been there: staring at a screen, searching for something you can’t quite put into words. Maybe it’s a new “vibe” for your apartment or a specific fall coat — whatever it is, words just don’t cut it. But what if you could just show or tell Google what you’re thinking and get a rich range of visual results? With a major new update to AI Mode in Google Search, you can now do just that.

Making visual exploration more natural

Starting today, you can ask a question conversationally and get a range of visual results in AI Mode, with the ability to continuously refine your search in the way that’s most natural for you.

Let’s say you’re searching for maximalist design inspiration for your bedroom. Now, AI Mode will help you turn your vague idea into a clear vision. You’ll see rich visuals that match the vibe you’re looking for, and can follow up in whatever way is most natural for you, like asking for more options with dark tones and bold prints. Each image has a link, so you can click out and learn more when something catches your eye. And because the experience is multimodal, you can also start your search by uploading an image or snapping a photo.
