Google has launched AI Mode in Search for users in Kenya, allowing them to tackle complex, multi-part questions with more intuitive responses.
Google’s AI Mode in Search is powered by a custom version of Google’s latest Gemini 2.5 model which has advanced reasoning and context understanding to Search.
“We’re incredibly excited to bring AI Mode to our users in the region,” said Alex Okosi, Managing Director, Google Africa. “We know that people in this region are curious and have complex questions about everything from planning a trip to understanding a new concept.”
AI Mode has advanced reasoning and breaks down a user’s question into subtopics and simultaneously search a multitude of queries on their behalf. According to the firm, this allows for a deeper dive into the web, uncovering hyper-relevant content. AI Mode is also multimodal, allowing users to search via text, voice, or even images.
AI Mode has been rolled out in Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa and appears as a tab on the Search results page and within the Google app for Android and iOS.
