Google rolls out Deep Think to AI Ultra subscribers.
Posted Aug 1, 2025 at 12:01 PM UTC Google rolls out Deep Think to AI Ultra subscribers. The advanced problem-solving model, first announced at I/O in May, is now available in the Gemini app for anyone signed up to Google's $250 per month plan. The version rolling out is a variant on the model that recently picked up Gold at the International Mathematical Olympiad. While that version took hours to solve complex math problems, the wide release is apparently much faster, but Google estimates it could still get Bronze.

Google Search is testing something a bit different from its wall of blue links
Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR A new Google Web Guide feature uses AI to sort search results into categories. It's part of Search Labs and is now available under the Web tab for opted-in users. The feature could expand to other parts of Search as testing progresses. Ever feel like your search results are just a wall of blue links in a random order? Google's all-knowing algorithm already tried to feed you the most relevant links, but now it may be going one step further in categorizing your results. Those who've signed up for Search Labs can already give it a try. As a new Google Blog post explains, the company has launched a new Search Labs feature called Web Guide. It uses AI to group your search results into categories, starting with users who opt in under the Web tab. Google says it may eventually expand to the main All tab, subject to testing. Let's say you search for 'how to solo travel in Japan.' Instead of one long list of web pages, Web Guide might break it up into sections like 'Comprehensive guides for solo travel in Japan' and 'Personal experiences and tips from solo travelers.' The idea appears to be that if your open-ended search didn't fully convey what kind of content you're after, the results categories make it easier to hone in on the type of answers that you had in mind. Web Guide uses a custom version of Gemini and something called 'query fan-out,' which essentially means it runs a bunch of related searches in the background to surface more relevant results. It's a similar approach to the one behind AI Mode, which also uses Gemini to enhance how results are presented. For those checking out the new feature, you can switch back to the regular results view whenever you want, although Google says it's planning to gradually roll this AI-organized layout into other areas of Search.

Chrome on Android Lets You Move Address Bar to Bottom
Home » Tech in Daily Life » Chrome on Android Lets You Move Address Bar to Bottom Google has announced a new update to Chrome on Android. Users can now move the address bar to the bottom of the screen. This change adds a new layer of customization and is aimed at improving user comfort during browsing. The update was revealed on the official Google Blog. It explained that the feature is designed to give users more control over how they interact with the browser. Depending on the size of your hand or device, one position may be more convenient than the other. To move the address bar: Long-press on the address bar and select 'Move address bar to bottom' Or, go to Chrome Settings > Address Bar and choose the preferred position This update is rolling out gradually. It will start appearing on devices today and will be available to all Android users in the coming weeks. Google reported that the goal is to make browsing on Chrome more adaptable. While the option is simple, it supports a wider range of user preferences. The address bar can be moved back to the top at any time using the same steps. Moreover, the ability to reposition the address bar is part of Google's ongoing efforts to enhance usability. It may especially benefit users of larger phones, where reaching the top of the screen can be less convenient. The company has not linked this update to other changes but continues to focus on customization and accessibility. The address bar location can now be adjusted to match individual needs and browsing habits. This feature is expected to become a standard part of Chrome for Android soon. Users can check their Chrome settings to see if the option is available on their device.
