In a sign of the times (and where things are going), visiting google.com\/ai<\/a> now opens Google Search AI Mode.<\/p>\n

Previously, google.com\/aimode<\/a> was the shortcut to the latest Google Search experience on desktop and mobile web. It has now been shortened for a slightly more memorable, if not obvious, URL.<\/p>\n

This joins the desktop Chrome New Tab Page shortcut inside the \u201cSearch Google or type a URL\u201d field, and in the Omnibox depending on your query. (The former, introduced in July<\/a>, has become my go-to way to access AI Mode. Personally, the shortcut I use the least is the filter in the top-left corner of the Search results page. I never switch modes, and find myself immediately going to the homepage directly when I know it\u2019s a prompt type of question.)<\/p>\n

\"Google<\/p>\n

In the Android and iOS app, AI Mode now appears as a 2\u00d71 button underneath the Search field. That\u2019s followed by shortcuts for Search Live and gallery (Google Lens.) The company reverted to the previous design, which I thought looked quite nice, that placed AI Mode directly in the Search field. That bar is back to a look that has been in place for years with voice search and Lens.\u00a0<\/p>\n
