Google Expands Agentic Booking Globally as AI Mode Gets Redesign

Google is expanding its AI-powered restaurant booking capability to international markets while rolling out a redesigned interface for AI Mode. The booking feature allows Google AI to make restaurant reservations on behalf of users without direct human intervention. The service was previously limited to select markets and is now available globally. The redesign includes updates to the prompt box interface, bringing it in line with recent changes to the standalone Gemini application. Google AI Mode provides AI-generated responses within Google Search results. The expansion of agentic capabilities marks Google's continued investment in AI systems that can take autonomous actions on behalf of users. The restaurant booking feature competes with similar offerings from OpenAI and other AI platform providers. The updates were reported by 9to5Google.
