One thing to do today… search my name on Google 😉

Google Search broke all prior usage records and saw its highest usage in history right after Argentina scored their winning goal in yesterday’s match! 🤯 Great to see the global excitement for the World Cup... can't wait for the semis and final!

For ongoing tasks, like planning a wedding or managing a move, Search will soon be able to build custom experiences with Google @Antigravity that you can continue to come back to and make progress on. Think of them like building your own mini apps right in Search.

Here’s @rmstein, VP of Product, Search demoing the new tool on the #GoogleIO stage.

Hello. How are you? Thank you. I love you. Please.

Some of the most frequently translated phrases of the past 20 years!

Google Translate began twenty years ago with a mission to help people understand one another, regardless of the language they speak. What started as a small experiment has become a global tool that helps over 1 billion users every month.

In that time Translate has evolved from simple pattern matching to true understanding. In 2006, it relied on statistical machine learning to look for patterns in small word clusters. By 2016, we pioneered a shift to neural networks to move beyond literal word-for-word translations, and today we’re using our powerful Gemini models to make Translate even more helpful.

We are moving from text to fluid, real-time conversations. With our latest models, you can even use your headphones as a personal interpreter that preserves your original tone and cadence - it’s an amazing experience!

One of the interesting things about AI is that as we make progress, we begin to take it for granted. If you met a person who could translate across a hundred languages faster than any human can, you would be so impressed. Today, one product does that for nearly 250 languages, and we kind of just shrug.

Being able to say thank you in 250 languages is not something I take for granted. So to the 1 billion who use Google Translate - merci, dhanyavaad, arigatō, gracias, and thank you! Let’s see what the next 20 years will bring.

One more step towards a world without language barriers. Real-time translations just became even easier in the Google Translate app! 

Now you can get live translations with headphones on iOS (it’s already available on Android!).  🎧 Also available in more markets and over 70 languages! 🌍

Search Live is going global! 🌎 Starting today, people around the world can have conversations with Search using their voice and camera. And thanks to Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, it’s faster, more natural, and fully multilingual.

It’s my favorite way to use AI Mode - and a total cheat code for exploring & learning about the world with my kids. ⬇️

[Robby Stein @rmstein]

Today, we’re opening up access to Personal Intelligence for AI Mode in Search in the U.S. 🚀 This feature has totally changed how I use AI in Search. Here’s how it works:

1️⃣ Opt in to connect apps like Gmail and Google Photos. Search connects your info to give you responses that uniquely match your specific context and interests.

2️⃣ Start asking for things like ideas and recommendations, where this is particularly helpful.

For example: I wanted new podcast ideas and Personal Intelligence in AI Mode gave me spot-on recs for AI and product building shows that are similar to some of my favorites (hey @lennysan!). It even found some unexpected options around dad life working in tech. 🎧

Incredibly important you know that we can now turn anything into an enamel pin

Big update coming to Circle to Search today! Introducing multi-object image recognition.📱

This next-gen Circle to Search experience is made possible by Gemini 3’s agentic planning, reasoning and tool capabilities, which enhances our visual query fan-out technique. This means the model now plans and executes multiple image searches simultaneously, identifying every item in an image at once and sharing helpful links to the web – so you can understand the entire scene in one go.

[Sundar Pichai @sundarpichai]

See you all at Google I/O starting May 19th! https://t.co/KgNKbb3nMu

[Nick Fox @thefox]

Google Search just got a big upgrade: Gemini 3 is now the default model for AI Overviews globally ✨ – making Search more helpful for the billions of people who use it every day

[Nick Fox @thefox]

The most helpful Search is one that really gets you ✨ Excited to start shipping Personal Intelligence in AI Mode!

Been testing this, and it’s made my Search responses so much more helpful… Try it out by connecting Google apps like Gmail and Photos, then asking q's where your preferences and plans matter, like book recommendations or trip planning

[Robby Stein @rmstein]

(1/2) Personal Intelligence just landed in AI Mode – unlocking a Google Search experience that really *gets* you. Starting with subscribers, if you opt in to connecting Search to apps like Gmail and Google Photos, you can get responses that are uniquely helpful and tailored to you.

I’ve been testing this out a ton and I’m genuinely impressed at how intuitive it’s been. AI Mode is not just searching, it’s helping connect the dots across my interests and preferences. For eg: it found family activities that slot perfectly into my travel plans – and even uncovered items that match my specific style... (like nailing it with recommending new shoes! 👟)
