On Monday, Google announced that AI Mode will now support Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, and Brazilian Portuguese. The update follows last month’s rollout of the AI-powered experience to 180 new markets in English, after initially launching in the U.S. and later expanding to the U.K. and India.

“With this expansion, more people can now use AI Mode to ask complex questions in their preferred language, while exploring the web more deeply,” said Hema Budaraju, VP of Product Management at Google Search, in a blog post.

First rolled out as an experiment to Google One AI Premium subscribers in March, AI Mode is Google’s answer to AI search platforms including Perplexity and OpenAI’s ChatGPT Search. The feature utilizes a customized version of Gemini 2.5, featuring multimodal and reasoning capabilities.

In August, Google introduced agentic features in AI Mode, letting it find restaurant reservations, with support for local service appointments and event ticket bookings planned for the future. These updates are currently limited to Google AI Ultra subscribers in the U.S. and are available through the “Agentic capabilities in AI Mode” experiment in Labs. The Ultra tier costs $249.99 per month.

So far, Google’s AI Mode is accessible via a dedicated tab on the search results page and a button in the search bar. The company appears to be working toward making this AI-led search experience the default “soon,” as indicated by Google DeepMind’s group product manager Logan Kilpatrick, while responding to a user post on X last week.

Google’s recent AI updates, including AI Mode and AI Overviews, are criticized for affecting search clicks. However, Google last month denied that its AI search features are killing website traffic.
