Google expands its"AI Mode" search function, further importNewly upgraded Gemini 2.5 Pro model and Deep Search technology, and opened up application services that use AI to assist in making phone calls to query business information, continuing to deepen the search experience centered on generative AI.
This update means that Google has begun to actively build "AI Mode" into its main search interactive interface. It is no longer just a keyword-centric query mode in the past, but is developing towards an intelligent assistant that can better understand semantics, conduct multiple rounds of conversations and provide proactive services.
At this year's Google I/O conference, Google has already announced that it is preparing to add the "Deep Think" function to Gemini 2.5 Pro. This update will officially integrate the "Deep Search" function into the "AI Mode", which can provide more in-depth and semantically oriented search results based on user search needs.
However, these features are currently only available to Google AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers.
On the other hand, Google also simultaneously showed theProject AstraThe voice call function has initially entered the "AI Mode" application service and is open to all users to experience, but Google AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers will enjoy higher usage limits.
When searching for local businesses, users will see options such as "Ask AI to help me check prices". AI will automatically make a phone call to inquire about relevant information, covering basic questions such as business hours, inventory and product prices.
Although AI phone calls currently only support basic communication with merchants and do not yet fully support multiple languages and complex conversation scenarios, Google's continued integration of AI tools into its Search services indicates that its core strategy is gradually shifting from traditional search to AI-driven interactive query and assistant functions.
As the "AI Mode" function continues to expand, the way users interact with Google Search will inevitably change significantly in the future.
