Google has a new feature. Now, people can search the internet using a video.
This means if you see something and have a question about it, you can point your phone at it, ask your question, and get search results. This feature is available for Android and iPhone users worldwide from 1700 GMT after turning on “AI Overviews” in the Google app. At first, it only works in English. This is part of Google’s use of artificial intelligence (AI) to change how we search online.
Google is also making it easier to search by asking questions about pictures with Google Lens in their mobile app.
These new features are helping Google stay ahead in the search engine market where it is a big leader.
Other companies, like OpenAI, are also trying new ideas to improve search. But for now, Google is still the top search engine.
