Overview
- AI Mode is now available in English across more than 180 countries and territories, with additional languages and regions planned.
- An agentic restaurant‑reservation capability debuts in the U.S. as a Labs experiment for Google AI Ultra subscribers, surfacing real‑time availability and linking to booking pages rather than completing purchases.
- U.S. users who opt into the Labs experiment can receive dining recommendations tailored from prior conversations and activity in Search and Maps, with adjustable controls in Google Account settings.
- AI Mode responses can be shared in the U.S. via links that let recipients continue the conversation, and senders can delete shared links at any time.
- The new features run on Project Mariner live browsing plus Knowledge Graph, Maps and partner integrations such as OpenTable, Resy, Tock, Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek and Booksy, while industry studies report shifting referral traffic patterns as Google targets local services and ticketing next.
