Google has expanded AI Mode, its advanced AI-powered search experience, to five additional languages: Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, and Brazilian Portuguese.
AI Mode: Beyond Translation
Hema Budaraju, Vice President of Product Management, Search, explained that creating a global search experience requires more than translation. With the multimodal and reasoning abilities of Google’s custom Gemini 2.5 model, AI Mode now delivers locally relevant results across these new languages.
This rollout enables users to ask longer, more detailed, or nuanced questions in their preferred language and receive context-aware answers.
Features of AI Mode in Search
- Handles complex queries that once required multiple searches.
- Accepts multimodal input—text, voice, or image-based questions.
- Useful for exploratory tasks, such as planning trips, comparing destinations, or finding tailored local suggestions.
- Provides structured responses, including summaries, tables, and links for further reading.
Example in Hindi
- A user could upload a balcony photo and ask:
“बारिश के इस मौसम में यहां एक छोटा सा गार्डन बनाना चाहता हूं. रात में खिलने वाले कौन से खुशबूदार पौधे लगाऊं ताकि चाय पीते हुए लोकल ट्रेन और शहर का नज़ारा देख सकूं?”
- AI Mode interprets all elements—rainy season, desire for fragrant, night-blooming plants, and the specific setting—and suggests suitable options. Follow-up questions like “क्या रात की रानी और मूनफ्लावर की देखभाल आसानी से हो सकती है?” continue the conversation seamlessly.
- Similarly, a query such as “अक्टूबर में परिवार के साथ छुट्टी मनाने के लिए वियतनाम और श्रीलंका की तुलना करें” generates a comparison table, presenting key points side by side for easier decision-making.
Availability
- Rollout date: September 8, 2025
- Languages added: Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese
- Regions: Available globally on Google Search
With this update, Google brings AI Mode to more users worldwide, allowing them to explore information deeply in their own languages.
