Google is rolling out an AI Mode tab in Search that gives direct answers like Perplexity does, shown here searching for Chick Fil A news. The feature sits alongside traditional results, letting you pick which you want.
Google has been experimenting with AI results right next to their Google searches. Now, for anybody who's tried this before, there's obvious value there. Instead of just giving you a bunch of links, it just tells you the answer. And essentially what they're doing here, they're adding a new tab to Google Searches, and it just says AI Mode. And it's essentially a perplexity that's built into Google Search. And right here in the screen recorder, you can see how this performs in practice. So basically, the journey starts with google.com as it usually would, like Chick Fil A News 2025. I mean, what else would you be looking for in your free time? And then here at the top, next to the normal Google stories, they have a new tab called AI Mode, which gives you functionality just like Perplexity or chatgpt Search would too. It just makes sense. If you want different links, you still have Google, but if you just want the info, well, the AI mode will give it to you. What do you think? Would you prefer this to Google Searches?
