The tech giant is also trying its hand at hi-tech glasses again, more than a decade after wearers of its first eyewear were dubbed \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/technology\/2014\/feb\/19\/google-glass-advice-smartglasses-glasshole\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">glassholes<\/a>\u201d and laughed out of San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Google executives announced at the company\u2019s annual conference for software developers, Google I\/O, that its search box would accommodate longer and more specific queries than before \u2013 questions more like those people would ask one another than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/technology\/2016\/jan\/15\/how-to-use-search-like-a-pro-10-tips-and-tricks-for-google-and-beyond\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">Search\u2019s idiosyncratic syntax<\/a>. The changes will direct users to engage directly with Google\u2019s chatbot. The change to search is underpinned by the company\u2019s new artificial intelligence model, Gemini 3.5, announced the same day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Executives said Gemini would make longer text predictions based on what users have already typed than it does currently. An everyday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/technology\/google\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Google<\/a> search may likewise return more visual elements and suggestions to interact with Google\u2019s AI to create a calendar invite, a plan in a spreadsheet or another action within Google\u2019s family of products.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"b349ec77-0827-4f2c-ac88-b490f37b7afe\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.VideoYoutubeBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\">\n<div data-component=\"youtube-embed\" class=\"dcr-13aa88h\">\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/p6EBMG8OEBI?wmode=opaque&amp;feature=oembed\" title=\"What\u2019s New in Search\" height=\"480\" width=\"854\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cGoogle Search is AI search,\u201d said Elizabeth Reid, who oversees the product, calling the changes the biggest Google Search had seen in its nearly 30-year history. The updates roll out globally to the desktop and mobile versions of Google Search Tuesday. A video promoting the changes showed results that more closely resemble visually augmented versions of AI Overviews, the bulleted summary responses that Google Search returns now, than a list of links. Users will still be able to choose the original version of search, the collection of links, by clicking a tab titled \u201cWeb\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Reid said that Google Search queries reached an all-time high last month. Since the debut of Search\u2019s \u201cAI Mode\u201d a year ago, in which a user chats with an Gemini-powered bot rather than navigating to a list of links, queries to the chatbot-specific interface have doubled every quarter. If a user adds photos, videos or documents to the Chrome browser\u2019s search bar, Search will automatically go into AI mode.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The goal of Google Gemini, said Josh Woodward, who oversees the flagship AI\u2019s development, is the creation of \u201ca universal assistant that\u2019s personal, proactive, persistent\u201d. The company announced that 900 million people use the Gemini app monthly, still less than ChatGPT\u2019s 900 million weekly users. The addition of agents to Google\u2019s flagship search product, used by billions of people every day, marks an expansion of a niche type of AI beyond the domain of tech-savvy, business-focused users to the wider consumer realm.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"2244bb4b-7d8f-48b4-8177-e487b578801c\" data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.ImageBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\"><figcaption data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" class=\"dcr-fd61eq\"><span class=\"dcr-1inf02i\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"13\" viewbox=\"0 0 18 13\"><path d=\"M18 3.5v8l-1.5 1.5h-15l-1.5-1.5v-8l1.5-1.5h3.5l2-2h4l2 2h3.5l1.5 1.5zm-9 7.5c1.9 0 3.5-1.6 3.5-3.5s-1.6-3.5-3.5-3.5-3.5 1.6-3.5 3.5 1.6 3.5 3.5 3.5z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"dcr-1qvd3m6\">Guests arrive at the 2026 Google I\/O technology developer conference.<\/span> Photograph: Karl Mondon\/AFP\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">For subscribers to its AI Pro and Ultra plans, Search will include the option to create \u201cinformation agents\u201d, autonomous AI bots that can perform in-depth research and return summaries of it or plans of action to a user. A \u201cgenerative user interface\u201d feature will be able to create customized visuals and interactive elements like dashboards based on a user\u2019s requests. A new agent feature, Gemini Spark, will be able to access information from users\u2019 Gmail, Google Calendar and other Google products to perform research, shop, and plan upcoming trips, appointments or recurring tasks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In conjunction with partners Samsung and glasses makers Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, Google executives unveiled \u201cintelligent eyewear\u201d, a line of sunglasses and eyeglasses set to go on sale in the fall. The glasses will respond to users\u2019 voice commands to Gemini and take photos or videos with embedded cameras. Fellow tech giant Meta has partnered with eyewear giant EssilorLuxottica to sell similar voice-activated, camera-equipped glasses since 2021, the Ray-Ban Meta.<\/p>\n<figure data-spacefinder-role=\"inline\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.NewsletterSignupBlockElement\" class=\"dcr-173mewl\"><gu-island name=\"EmailSignUpWrapper\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"visible\" props=\"{&quot;index&quot;:10,&quot;listId&quot;:6013,&quot;identityName&quot;:&quot;tech-scape&quot;,&quot;category&quot;:&quot;article-based&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;A weekly dive in to how technology is shaping our lives&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;TechScape&quot;,&quot;frequency&quot;:&quot;Weekly&quot;,&quot;successDescription&quot;:&quot;We'll send you TechScape every week&quot;,&quot;theme&quot;:&quot;news&quot;,&quot;illustrationSquare&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/media.guim.co.uk\/4933072e410c5b18df40be084aec6ac932ac8c99\/0_0_12501_12500\/12501.jpg&quot;,&quot;exampleUrl&quot;:&quot;\/technology\/series\/techscape\/latest&quot;,&quot;idApiUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/idapi.theguardian.com&quot;,&quot;hideNewsletterSignupComponentForSubscribers&quot;:true,&quot;showNewNewsletterSignupCard&quot;:true}\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">In 2014, Google started selling Google Glass, another optical computer, for $1,500, which inspired widespread derision and was shuttered the following year. In a sign of shifting attitudes, Meta sees its augmented-reality glasses as a major area of growth for its future business, and Google is even working on a second model of smart glasses with an in-lens display, nicknamed Project Aura.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Other announcements at I\/O included AI coding features for Gemini and cybersecurity-focused AI.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br
