Google is testing Search Live in more markets
The company had originally planned to announce global availability. A few hours after this story was published, Google reached out to retract the news. Given that the company says it is testing in more markets, it seems entirely possible that the global Search Live release will happen sooner than later. After rolling out Search Live to all US Google app users last September, Google is now bringing the feature to every place where it offers its AI Mode chatbot. Search Live, if you need a reminder, allows you to point your phone's camera at an object or scene and ask questions about what you see in front of you.
