Google Search rolls out generative AI tools in more than 120 countries, including the Philippines

Google is offering more ways for you to get better search results by expanding its Search Generative Experience (SGE) to more than 120 countries and territories, including the Philippines.

The tool is still in its experimental stage and can be accessed through Search Labs, which allows users to test experiments in Google Search before they become available to the public. 

To enable SGE, you would first have to sign up for Search Labs via Google Chrome on your desktop or through the Google App on both iOS and Android devices. You can enable SGE on Google Search once you're done enrolling. 

Note, though, that the tool is already available on Chrome desktop today and is yet to drop on the Google app in the coming week.

One of the features you can already check out is how to ask follow-up questions directly on the search results page. This is how it works, according to Google:

“For instance, with a question like ‘Does honey ever spoil?’, SGE will deliver an overview beneath this, and users will see suggested next steps where they can simply tap a query like “How can you tell if a honey is spoiled”, or type in a specific follow-up question.”

This feature will first come in English in the U.S., followed by non-English options like Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, and Indonesian.
