Google's big upgrade: Tell AI Mode your preferences and needs, making online shopping a snap...
Google has released a new update to its AI (Artificial Intelligence) mode to make online shopping easier and more enjoyable for people. With major sales and holidays like Black Friday approaching, and the wedding season having also begun, this major upgrade will help people find the things they want. You can now ask AI Mode for shopping suggestions. You simply need to specify where you're going and what type of product you're looking for. You simply need to describe your preferences and needs, and AI Mode will simplify your shopping. You won't need to repeatedly apply filters or think of the right keywords. According to a Google blog post, this is all thanks to Google's new AI and agentic technology. Read the full story below.
Shopping is now easy with AI Mode in Search.
Google's AI Mode in Search will now provide intelligent answers to shopping-related questions. These answers will include product images, prices, reviews, and stock information. All this information will be pulled from Google's Shopping Graph, which lists over 50 billion products.
Just give a prompt, and it's done.
You can tell Google your preferences and needs simply by giving a prompt, without using filters or keyboard shortcuts. For example, in Google's AI search mode, you can type, "I need a lightweight sweater for my trip to Atlanta that's timeless and easy to wear with jeans or a dress." Products and their details will appear based on your details.
You'll be able to compare products.
Not only this, but Google has also stated that its AI can create tables to compare products. These tables will also include information from reviews. For example, you can find out how a moisturizer works on your skin. This will make it easier for shoppers to choose from a wide range of options.
Features available in the Gemini app
For your information, this new feature is now available in the Gemini app for US users. This will allow them to go from thinking of gift ideas to browsing products directly within the app.
Agentic AI will do this
You can check local stock using agentic AI. When you search for a product nearby, you'll see a "Let Google Call" option. This information will be sent to you via email or text message.
Agentic Checkout Feature Also Coming
To make shopping even easier, Google is also rolling out an agentic checkout feature. Shoppers can track specific products, including size and color. They can also set a budget. If the price of a product falls within a certain range, Google may offer to automatically complete the purchase using Google Pay after your final confirmation.
Benefits
Now, people will be able to find and purchase the items they want without any hassle. This is a great way to make shopping easier and faster during the holiday season.
