Google Gemini 2.0 coming to Search and AI Overviews

Google released its upgraded AI model, Gemini 2.0 today and will be rolling these advancements into Google Search and AI Overviews. Google’s AI Overviews should be able to “tackle more complex topics and multi-step questions, including advanced math equations, multimodal queries and coding,” Google wrote.

Sundar Pichai, Google’s CEO wrote, “No product has been transformed more by AI than Search.”

AI Overviews

Google is already testing using Gemini 2.0 for AI Overviews. Google said it is “bringing the advanced reasoning capabilities of Gemini 2.0 to AI Overviews to tackle more complex topics and multi-step questions, including advanced math equations, multimodal queries and coding.”

Google already started limited testing this week of this updated model for AI Overviews. Google said they will “be rolling it out more broadly early next year.” “And we’ll continue to bring AI Overviews to more countries and languages over the next year,” Google added.

Google is using Search with Gemini 2.0 in other areas too, including:
