Google launches AI mode search agents with Gemini 3.5 flash
Technology
Google just rolled out "search agents" in AI Mode: think of them as smart assistants that handle tasks for you with barely any effort.
Powered by Gemini 3.5 Flash, these agents can keep tabs on info, send updates, and even take action automatically.
You can set up custom alerts for things like new apartment listings or business calls.
Google starts US rollout, free basics
"Search agents" are part of Google's plan to make AI tools more useful and personal for its 1 billion monthly active users.
The feature started in the US and will expand to more regions based on user feedback.
While advanced options are included in the AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions, everyone gets access to basic features, so you don't need a paid plan to try them out.
