Google Search

You Can Now Chat with Google Search

Google has officially rolled out AI Mode in its Search feature, allowing users to interact with a chatbot directly within search results.

Unlike the AI Overview function introduced last year, AI Mode enables conversational queries and provides real-time responses based on multiple data sources.

Previously available only as a Google Labs experiment, AI Mode is now being tested with a small percentage of users in the U.S. over the coming weeks.

Those included in the test will see an “AI Mode” tab in Search, which, when clicked, will display chatbot-generated insights related to their query.

Users can ask open-ended or exploratory questions, such as comparing different materials for clothing or finding the best local stores for specific items.

Microsoft

Microsoft Goes Passwordless by Default

Microsoft has taken a significant step toward eliminating passwords by making passkeys the default sign-in method for new accounts.

This move aligns with the company’s broader effort to enhance security and simplify authentication.

Previously, Microsoft supported passwordless logins through Windows Hello and passkeys, but users could still opt for traditional passwords.

Now, new accounts will no longer require passwords at all, instead offering phishing-resistant authentication methods like passkeys, push notifications, and security keys.

Existing users can also remove their passwords manually via account settings.

Reddit Adds AI Answers to Search Google must be Tensed

Reddit is making a major change to its search functionality by integrating AI-powered Reddit Answers directly into its main search bar.

Previously available in a separate section, this feature will now be part of Reddit’s core search experience, streamlining the process of finding relevant discussions and insights.

Reddit Answers, which summarizes conversations from across the platform, was introduced last year and has already gained 1 million weekly users.

By embedding it into the primary search box, Reddit aims to make searches more efficient, helping users find answers without manually browsing multiple threads.
