- Google’s new Gemini 3 model is out to improve all of Google’s AI features.
- The Gemini app has a new look, smarter reactions and an agent to tackle more complex online tasks.
- Search will use Gemini 3 to create interactive and visual answers to your more complex questions
Google has officially launched Gemini 3, marking a major upgrade to its AI models and the platforms that use them. New reasoning methods, new app features, and an overhaul of the Google ecosystem that could change how people interact with Google products in everyday life. The new model comes with its usual stack of benchmarks and rankings, but the more interesting part is what it means for those who are skeptical about whether to experiment with AI.
Gemini 3 comes in two variants: Gemini 3 Pro and Gemini 3 Deep Think. Pro is the daily version with all features available immediately in apps, search and developer tools. Deep Think is the “enhanced reasoning” mode with an extra gear currently being tested and is intended for Google AI Ultra subscribers with deep pockets. But both share the same core.
1. Gemini 3 Power
Google is positioning Gemini 3 as a leap forward in reasoning, not just raw size or speed. The company likes to talk about AGI “steps” in cautious forecasts, but the tone around this release is clearly more confident. The company is keen to boast how well the Gemini 3 can do everything from analyzing and translating a handwritten recipe to being able to merge it with a voice message and write a cookbook based on the combination.
That kind of multimodality is where Gemini 3 feels most transformed. The model’s video analysis now understands movement, timing and other details. It can even analyze a sports game and suggest a training plan for players. And its million-token context window means it can keep track of vast real-world information without falling apart halfway through a long session.
2. Gemini 3 in the Gemini app
Gemini 3 does not arrive in isolation. The Gemini app is getting one of its biggest overhauls, with a new interface navigation system and a “My Stuff” folder for every piece of AI-generated content you’ve requested. The new app should feel more useful by default, according to Google.
The most notable change is the new generative interfaces. Gemini 3 builds them in real time based on what you ask instead of just using a template. As an example, Google suggested asking for help planning a vacation could produce a magazine-style itinerary complete with photos. Or instead of a wall of text to answer a complicated question, you’ll see a visually heavy layout of charts, tables, and other illustrations.
The Gemini app also gets an agent to act on your behalf. If you give Gemini a task that requires a few dozen steps, it can perform them using your connected Google apps. The agent starts with Google AI Ultra members and expands from there.
3. Gemini 3 search
Gemini 3 changes how Google handles complex questions. For the first time, a Gemini model is available in Search Instantly, and Google directs the most difficult queries to it. US Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers will see Gemini 3 Pro in AI mode, with wider access coming soon
Gemini 3 improves on Google’s fan-out approach to search multiple interpretations of your question to find relevant content. Gemini 3 understands intent deeply enough to discover material that previous versions routinely missed.
The most striking upgrade is the new generative user interface. When you ask a complex question, Gemini 3 constructs a layout with visuals, tables, grids, and even custom-coded interactive simulations to match the answer. A question on the three-body problem produces a manipulable model. A loan question generates a calculator tailored to the details you’ve included. Answers become more like small apps.
There are also plenty of links to the source material, which theoretically encourages users to follow up. Google says this system will evolve, especially as automatic model selection sends more queries to Gemini 3 behind the scenes.
