Google AI Mode Search Tutorial: From Feeling Lucky to Feeling Unstoppable

About this video

David demonstrates Google AI Mode, Google’s conversational search, and contrasts it with AI Overviews, ChatGPT search, and Perplexity. Access at the time of filming is described as US-only via google.com/aimode: opt in through Search Labs with a personal (not business) account and no incognito, or on iPhone/Android via the latest Google app’s Labs icon. AI Overviews are framed as good for quick facts, while AI Mode suits exploration and multi-step tasks because it remembers context for follow-ups. In one example, the presenter says Google kicked off seven searches across over 150 sites and returned a one-to-two-page summary with gray citation icons linking to sources. Other current uses shown: photo search on a phone by taking a picture and asking a question about it, and detailed product research — a rain-jacket prompt covering sizing, durability, price, and color — with Google Shopping integration, price tracking, and a Labs ’try on’ experiment that renders the jacket on an uploaded full-body photo in about 30 seconds. Coming-soon features, presented from Google’s marketing material, include Deep Search producing a fully cited report from hundreds of pages, agentic tasks such as buying baseball tickets or ingredients without visiting the sites, and Search Live for real-time collaboration on a physical project. The presenter says that if you already use ChatGPT with search, AI Mode will feel familiar and you are not missing much yet, but he claims he is cancelling his Perplexity Pro subscription because he finds Google’s results just as trustworthy. He closes by anticipating AI Mode eventually drawing on email, calendar, and chats for personalized recommendations.

Key takeaways

• Access described as US-only and Labs opt-in: personal Google account, no incognito, via google.com/aimode or the Google app’s Labs section
• Use AI Overviews for quick facts and AI Mode for exploratory, multi-step, follow-up questions that build on context
• AI Mode answers cite sources — in the demo the presenter says it ran seven searches over 150+ sites and summarized them in 1-2 pages
• Beyond text: photo-based questions, detailed shopping prompts with price tracking, and a Labs try-on that renders clothing on your photo
• Deep Search, agentic purchasing, and Search Live are presented as coming soon, not available in the demo
