Search Goes Conversational
Google this week announced the launch of Search Live with voice input, a new capability inside the Google app that allows users to engage in back-and-forth spoken conversations with its AI-powered Search tool. Rolled out first in the United States, the feature is initially available to those who have opted into the AI Mode experiment in Google Labs, the company’s testing platform for early-access features.
Hands-Free Search
The launch marks a step forward in how users interact with Search, with Google positioning the update as a more natural, hands-free way to discover and explore information while multitasking or on the move.
Use the “Live” Icon
A dedicated “Live” icon now appears within the Google app interface, allowing users to tap and speak their queries aloud. The AI responds in spoken form, and users can follow up with further questions to refine or expand the topic, thereby mirroring a more human-like back-and-forth conversation.
