Google updates Gemini logo; AI Mode expands with ads
Google has refreshed the Gemini logo to use Google's color palette, replacing the previous gradient star with a multicolored emblem. The new logo is visible in the Gemini Android app, particularly when live voice interactions are used, while the desktop and some chat interfaces still show the older color scheme. Concurrently, Google is expanding AI Mode, its enhanced AI search experience, with initial rollouts in India and the United States and a progressive regional expansion planned over the coming months; Europe is not yet included. AI Overviews, powered by Gemini 2.5, are already shown to over 1.5 billion people across more than 200 countries and 40 languages. Ads are being integrated into both AI Overviews and AI Mode, with the US rollout occurring outside Google Labs and India already seeing the updated experience; Europe is pending. Google executive Hema Budaraju is cited regarding the AI Mode advances.

Google May Add Ads to Gemini
Google is reportedly considering adding advertising to Gemini, its AI chatbot, as the company looks for new monetization paths in response to changing search behaviour and competition from ad-supported chatbots. Android Authority reported the plan and Google Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler said on the Q1 2026 earnings call the company is open to integrating ad formats into Gemini. Google already places ads in its “AI Overviews” and is testing a dialogue-oriented AI search mode. The article notes that OpenAI has introduced ads in ChatGPT and is pursuing sizable ad revenue targets, which appears to have influenced Google’s stance. Details on which users would see ads and the exact ad formats remain unclear; Google reportedly signalled agencies in December that ad options for Gemini could arrive this year.
Google Gemini 3 Elevates Search and App AI
Google announces Gemini 3, its latest AI model, integrated directly into the Google Gemini App and activated in Search via AI Mode. The model promises multimodal understanding, nuanced responses, and generative layouts, with agentic capabilities that support multi-step tasks and coding. Gemini 3 is supported by a new Antigravity platform for Vibe Coding, enabling autonomous agent actions and app-level workflows; developers can access Gemini 3 through Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, Gemini CLI, and the new Agentric-Building platform Antigravity. The rollout emphasizes deep integration across Google services (Maps, Canvas, Chrome) and introduces enhanced AI capabilities for developers and end users. Google notes Gemini 3's broad reach (650 million monthly active users; 13 million developers) and cites performance benchmarks from internal assessments. Availability begins in the US for Pro/Ultra users, with broader deployment including Germany planned later. The company positions Gemini 3 as a major step in its AI strategy against competitors like OpenAI, Meta, and Anthropic.
