Google has made significant strides in expanding its AI offerings, announcing the global launch of AI Mode, which now supports multiple languages and functionalities. This expansion comes just after its rollout of numerous new AI features to Google AI Ultra subscribers earlier this month. Additional steps to improve the user experience include allowing subscribers to make restaurant reservations directly through the AI interface.
In August, Google released AI Mode to 180 new countries, significantly increasing its reach. This move is part of Google’s ongoing efforts to integrate artificial intelligence into everyday tasks, making it easier for users worldwide to interact with technology. To make the most of this amazing new feature, Google has launched AI Mode – it’s an adventure packed with amazing new features. Along with their US Android public release of conversational photo editing, they’ve shown a commitment to increasing user engagement with AI.
Additionally, Google introduced an accessible Google AI Plus subscription model which started its rollout out in Indonesia earlier this month. We developed this subscription service to democratize access to our advanced AI functionalities, connecting planners to powerful tools and insights at an accessible price point. Following its debut in Indonesia, the Google AI Plus plan is rolling out to 40 additional countries. This recent move indicates Google’s continuing efforts to reach an even broader audience.
To better meet the growing needs of a multilingual user base, Google has added more languages to AI Mode’s powered personalization features. The next update will add Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, and Brazilian Portuguese. This improvement ensures that a wider range of users—even those who speak less widely adopted languages—can access and interact with Google’s advanced AI features, fostering inclusivity and accessibility.
