Google is accelerating the worldwide distribution of its most advanced artificial intelligence technologies by expanding Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro to almost 120 countries and territories.
With this upgrade, users from a broader international audience can now get the AI-powered features of “AI Mode” inside Google Search. The increase is an indication of Google’s promise to make multimodal, generative, and reasoning-based AI tools more widely available, particularly to people who need to study, generate visual outputs, and receive real-time assistance in Search.
Gemini 3: The Most Intelligent Model by Google is Now in AI Mode
Search Gets Advanced Reasoning
The entry of Gemini 3 Pro into AI Mode is a turning point for Search users. The model’s highest-level reasoning capabilities enable it to grasp intricate queries, handle subtle language, and provide refined answers that surpass ordinary search results.
Users of Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra can go straight to Gemini 3 Pro by clicking on the “Thinking with 3 Pro” option located in the model selector within AI Mode.
This presents a support that is deeper and more analytical, and it is especially beneficial in the following areas:
- research
- complex planning
- code generation
- problem-solving
- analytical summaries
Enhanced Multimodal Intelligence
Gemini 3 Pro is not merely a text processor but rather an entity that executes the whole idea of text by:
- Images
- Diagrams
- Complex visual prompts
- Interlinked data
This feature of multimodality enables users to access dynamic layouts, interactive simulations, and new, on-the-fly, customized generative user interfaces.
Agentic Coding and Interactive Tools
One of the most remarkable features of Gemini 3 is its ability to code agentically, meaning it can plan and execute complex coding tasks. Users who depend on Search for technical support or wish to see their results alongside code explanations can now access a whole new set of possibilities.
Nano Banana Pro: Advanced Generative Imagery Comes to More Places
A State-of-the-Art Generative Imagery
The newest generative imagery model from Google, Nano Banana Pro, builds on Gemini 3 Pro as its base and thus enables AI Mode with high-quality, knowledge-enhanced image generation. It is specially designed for:
- Infographics
- Diagrams
- Explanatory visuals
- Structured educational content
This feature delivers the model’s value to students, content creators, professionals, and educators who need fast, precise visuals generated directly from Search.
Tied to the Knowledge Base of Search
Unlike isolated-image models, Nano Banana Pro is closely aligned with Google’s large-scale search knowledge. As a result, it can produce visuals that are not only imaginative but also informative and accurately contextualized.
Access Granted to Subscribers
At present, Nano Banana Pro can be used in English by the followers of Google AI Plus, Google AI Pro, and Google AI Ultra. Users must choose Gemini 3 Pro (“Thinking with 3 Pro”). Nano Banana Pro will then be automatically accessible in AI Mode for image-based tasks.
Image Creation and Editing Comes to AI Mode
Fast, Seamless Image Generation in Search
Users who are 18 or older can now generate images in AI Mode directly in Google Search on various devices. For Android users, this is at the top of the keyboard under Create Images. The users can perform one of the following steps:
- Write a prompt
- Upload an image
- Select suggested prompts
- Or edit existing visuals
This tool allows for rapid creation of visual content without the need for external image editing software.
Editing with Lens and Circle to Search
Google is also heavily incorporating image generation into Lens and Circle to Search:
In Lens, the users can:
- Take a picture
- Pick a suggested prompt
- Or write a custom description
- And create new images based on the photo taken
In Circle to Search, the users can:
- Press and hold the navigation bar
- Draw a circle around any part of the image that is displayed
- Click on “create”
- And produce variations, edits, or new images
The integration of these features breaks down barriers between the physical and digital worlds, enabling users to turn real-world images into AI-generated images in a matter of seconds.
Supported Languages and Language Areas
With this update, AI Mode now supports image generation in a wide array of languages:
- Bengali
- English
- French
- Hindi
- Indonesian
- Japanese
- Korean
- Portuguese
- Spanish
- Urdu
This indicates not only the major global markets but also Google’s goal of making cutting-edge AI accessible to users beyond English-speaking ones.
Territory Availability
The release covers almost 120 regions worldwide, making access to Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro much broader. Users will have to:
- log in to their individual Google Account
- be at least 18 years old
- And it is recommended to turn on Search history for the best performance
That said, Google AI subscription plans’ availability might still depend on the particular country, thus limiting access to certain features.
Subscription Tiers and Daily Image Generation Limits
Daily Image Creation Limits
To control the server load and provide users with equal performance, Google has set limits on drawing images:
- Free users can generate up to 100 images in a period of 24 hours
- AI Plus, Pro, and Ultra subscribers can generate up to 1000 images in a period of 24 hours
These restrictions depend on global interest and the amount of computing resources available at the time.
Plans and Access Levels
- Google AI Pro & Ultra: unrestricted access to Gemini 3 Pro and Nano Banana Pro
- Google AI Plus: access to Nano Banana Pro with increased image generation limits
- No plan: limited access and fewer images
The different plans make it possible to direct the features at the different users’ needs and budgets.
AI Mode: A Shift Toward Generative Search Experiences
The release of the above-mentioned products in more countries is part of Google’s broader “AI-first Search” strategy. The goal is to completely revamp Search as an interface that is dynamic, conversational, and task-oriented instead of just listing result pages and being able to produce:
- explanations
- images
- code
- personalized layouts
- guided workflows
The transition is characterized by the integration of regular search with the actions of agentic AI; i.e., the system can perform tasks such as taking actions, building tools, and creating content for the user.
Indications of Global Reach for an Advanced AI
1. Global Access to Advanced AI
The rollout of Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro to almost 120 countries means the world now has powerful AI tools once available only to the privileged few.
2. Major Leap in Search Capabilities
Search is now moving from being a query-based tool to an interactive, intelligent assistant.
3. Benefits for Everyday Users
Users can now:
- produce study diagrams
- enhance photos
- make infographics
- pose complex research questions
- organize their tasks visually
- deal with documents
- and receive answers filled with reasoning, all within Google Search.
Conclusion
The Google rollout of Gemini 3 and Nano Banana Pro is a significant step in the progression of Search. AI Mode not only maintains user engagement with the internet but also gives it the power of reasoning, the ability to be multimodal, and a powerful image-making tool.
This rollout will make advanced generative AI features available to a larger number of people across various languages, regions, and devices. Besides, as Google continues to improve its AI models, Search is increasingly becoming a one-stop shop for knowledge, creativity, and real-time problem-solving, keeping users a step closer to a future where intelligent assistance is seamlessly integrated into the digital experience of daily activities.
