Our Reading

The launch follows a familiar script.

Search Live is Google’s latest attempt to make search more interactive. It’s like Google Lens, but with a conversational twist. The feature is rolling out now, because what’s a Google product without a gradual rollout? Search Live is just the latest example of Google trying to make AI-powered search a thing. Because pointing your camera at something and asking Google what it is is exactly what we’ve all been missing.
