Today, Google is starting to roll out Search Live globally in all languages and locations where AI Mode is available. With this launch, people in more than 200 countries and territories will be able to have interactive conversations with Search in AI Mode, using both voice and camera.
This expansion is enabled by their new audio and voice model, Gemini 3.1 Flash Live, which delivers even more natural and intuitive conversations. The new model is also inherently multilingual, which means that people around the world will be able to speak with Search in their preferred language. Read more below..
Bringing Search Live to more people
Search Live is designed for those moments when you need real-time help, and typing out a query just won’t cut it. To go Live with Search, simply open the Google app on Android or iOS and tap the Live icon under the Search bar. From there, you can ask your question out loud to get a helpful audio response, then continue the conversation with follow-up questions or dive deeper with helpful web links.
If you want to ask about something in front of you, like how to install a new shelving unit you can enable your camera to add visual context. This way, Search can see what your camera sees and offer helpful suggestions, plus links to more information on the web.
You can also access Search Live if you’re already pointing your camera with Google Lens — just tap the Live option at the bottom of the screen to have a real-time, back-and-forth conversation about what you see in the real world.
We’re always working to make Search more helpful, and we’re excited to see how people around the world use Search Live to learn, explore and get things done.
There is no doubt that even up to this day, Ireland still holds the title of being one of Europe’s most dynamic technology hubs. This is made even more evident by the fact that global companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon maintain major operations in Dublin. Plus, there are quite a lot of startups and scale-ups that are building products from across the country.
These days, remote work has become more prominent than ever before. Remote work has completely changed the way that teams operate these days. After all, everyone from developers to engineers can collaborate despite not being in the same continent.
And yet, even with the growing popularity of remote work, there are still companies that maintain a physical presence in Dublin. This is completely reasonable, seeing as Dublin is a powerhouse filled with global opportunities. Plus, remote flexibility and physical base perfectly complement one another these days. After all, there will eventually come a time when companies who have remote workers will need a physical presence for important meetings with investors, stockholders, and partners.
The Rise of Remote Tech Teams in Ireland
It was the COVID-19 pandemic that made remote work adoption accelerate quickly. Even after the pandemic ended, a lot of companies still retained flexible working policies.
Because of remote work, companies in Dublin were able to recruit talent beyond Dublin’s city limits. This is very convenient, especially since there is no need for hired talent to relocate to fulfill their roles and responsibilities. As a result, most remote teams in Ireland now consist of professionals who are spread across multiple regions.
Sure, remote setups have plenty of advantages. For instance, there is easy access to a wider talent pool that allows companies to recruit specialists who might be unavailable locally. Plus, remote operations do not require a huge overhead. This can be very important for companies that are just starting out.
And yet, there are also some challenges that come with remote setups. These challenges must be anticipated by businesses to make sure they can still thrive despite possible hiccups.
Why Physical Meeting Spaces Still Matter
There is no denying that nothing beats face-to-face interaction. Sure, platforms like Slack, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams make it very easy to collaborate remotely. But of course, there are times when physical meetings are needed.
Some instances where face-to-face interactions might be necessary include strategy sessions, product design workshops, and investor presentations. When participants are in the same physical environment, there is a higher chance that productivity is better.
This is the reason why a lot of distributed companies plan for periodic in-person meetings in serviced offices Dublin. This way, they can plan for sessions, onboarding, or collaboration days in person. Flexible spaces are a huge help for these instances since they provide temporary but professional environments that support hybrid teams without a huge overhead.
In a way, these serviced offices serve as meeting points instead of daily workplaces. Employees can still work remotely most of the time and then just gather occasionally for key milestones or project reviews.
Collaboration and Culture in Hybrid Teams
It’s important for all members of an organization to be able to feel comfortable with one another. But since remote work means different people from different cultures can work together, there is a need to set aside a time to get to know each other’s cultures to foster better communication and collaboration.
It’s best if casual conversations, spontaneous brainstorming, and informal mentorship can happen naturally in person once in a while. This way, companies will be able to strengthen team relationships and align employees around shared goals.
These interactions can significantly improve communication and productivity despite the geographical restrictions that exist within an organization.
The Future of Work in Ireland’s Tech Sector
Since remote work has become established in today’s world, there is a very small chance that Ireland’s technology sector will go back to fully office-based work. Therefore, organizations must embrace all the advantages and disadvantages that come with the remote work setup and deal with them as efficiently as possible.
Sure, remote work is a very convenient and flexible setup. And yet, there will always be a need for in-person meetings and interactions; regardless of whether the purpose is to boost morale or collaboration or to brainstorm ideas and solve problems more effectively. Luckily, there are spaces like serviced offices Dublin that companies can pay for just for occasional meetings.
Remote work and occasional in-person meetings are a good combination. While there is no denying that the remote work setup is very convenient, nothing beats the advantages that come with meeting people in person. After all, interactions feel more natural. Plus, there is more room for building rapport and improving relationships.
As Ireland’s technology sector continues to grow, this balance between flexibility and physical presence will likely define how remote tech teams Ireland operate in the years ahead.

Irish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) overwhelmingly believe artificial intelligence (AI) can benefit their business, yet most are still struggling to translate that opportunity into action, according to new research released today. The study, commissioned by Google in partnership with Amárach Research and based on a survey of 400 Irish SMEs, shows that while 80% believe AI can positively impact their business and 65% expect it to drive growth in 2026, adoption remains limited.
The findings indicate a significant confidence and capability gap. The main barriers preventing greater AI adoption include fear of making mistakes (30%), lack of skills (27%) and cost (24%), with many business leaders unsure of where to start (16%). More than half (57%) believe they are behind competitors in adopting AI, while 50% are concerned their business could be left behind without it. The research also highlights that micro-businesses, longer established firms and non-exporters are most at risk of falling behind, underscoring the need for targeted, practical support that meet SMEs’ varying needs.
The research is being launched today at an event hosted by Google Ireland at The Foundry as part of Local Enterprise Week. In partnership with the Local Enterprise Office (LEO) network, Google also announced the launch of AI Works for Ireland, a series of complimentary, face-to-face regional events aimed at equipping SMEs with practical AI skills for business. The series begins today in Dublin, followed by events in Galway (April 30th), Cork (14th May) and Monaghan (28th May). Each event will feature insights from Google AI experts on how SMEs can use AI to drive growth, creativity and efficiency, alongside dedicated AI workshops offering support for founders and business leaders.
As part of the initiative, Google and the Local Enterprise Office network are providing up to 10,000 AI scholarships to workers across Ireland. Delivered through Coursera, the Google AI Professional Certificate offers practical training across more than 20 real-world AI business use cases, from data analysis and content creation to customer communications.
This research and initiative follows the release of the government’s National Digital and AI strategy, which includes key pillars to empower people, workers and businesses to develop cutting edge skills and fostering digital and AI literacy, alongside growing a digital innovative and competitive enterprise sector within Ireland.
Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation, Niamh Smyth, TD said:
“AI has the potential to boost productivity and enhance competitiveness across Ireland’s SME Sector. As we advance the ambitions of the recently published National Digital and AI Strategy, a key priority of my department is to fast‑track enterprise adoption digital and AI technologies. Initiatives like this one, delivered in partnership with Google and the Local Enterprise Offices, are vital in ensuring that businesses of all sizes, in every region, have the skills and confidence they need to adopt AI at pace.”
Vanessa Hartley, Head of Google Ireland, said:
“Irish SMEs are clear about the opportunity AI presents, but this research shows many are being held back by uncertainty rather than ambition. AI Works for Ireland is about closing that gap – providing practical, trusted support that helps businesses move from awareness to action, and from experimentation to real impact. At Google, we are committed to helping people and businesses across Ireland build the skills they need to succeed in an AI-powered economy. Through initiatives like this, we want to ensure SMEs have access to high-quality training, tools and expertise that empower them to grow, innovate and compete with confidence.”
Kieran Comerford, Chair of the Local Enterprise Offices, said:
“Local Enterprise Week is all about helping businesses and entrepreneurs improve and showing them the resources available to them. This new initiative with Google will bring accessible and hands on support in the area of AI which can benefit every small business. In a business eco system full of AI noise they need trusted advice to get started and AI Works for Ireland will deliver that support locally, where it can make the greatest difference.”
Anne Lanigan, Divisional Manager Local Enterprise & Regions, Enterprise Ireland said:
“ Empowering Irish companies of all sizes to adopt and deploy AI is a key objective of Enterprise Ireland’s strategy, and this is further endorsed by the Government’s updated National Digital & AI Strategy, Digital Ireland – Connecting our People, Securing our Future. We look forward to supporting the Local Enterprise Offices and Enterprise Europe Network in partnering with Google to deliver this important nationwide initiative to strengthen the digital capabilities of Irish companies.”
Gerard O’Neill, Chairman of Amárach Research, said:
“What stands out in this research is the gap between belief and behaviour. Irish SMEs recognise the value of AI, yet many lack the confidence, skills or reassurance to embed it in their day-to-day operations. Addressing these human barriers will be just as important as the technology itself if Ireland is to fully realise the benefits of AI.”

Since launching the Gemini app, they built tools to encourage creative expression through images and video. Today, Gemini is taking the next step: custom music generation. Lyria 3, Google DeepMind’s latest generative music model, is rolling out today in the Gemini app. Just describe an idea or upload a photo, like a comical R&B slow jam about a sock finding their match” and in a matter of seconds, Gemini will translate it into a high-quality, catchy track. To push the creative envelope further, you can even ask Gemini to take inspiration from something you upload. See more below.
Lyria 3 improves on audio generation from the previous model version in three important ways:
No need to provide your own lyrics! They’ll be generated for you based on your prompt.
You have more creative control over elements like style, vocals and tempo you want.
You can create more realistic and musically complex tracks.
Here’s how you can use it:
Text to tracks: Describe a specific genre, mood, inside joke, or memory to create unique tracks with lyrics or instrumental audio that fits your vibe. “Create a track about my favorite meal my mom used to make, it was made of rice, plantains and beans. Use an Afrobeats vibe and the singer should sound West African.”
From photos and videos to track: Upload a photo or video and watch Gemini use the content to compose a track with lyrics that fit the mood perfectly. “Use these photos to create a track about my dog Duncan on a hike in the woods.”
The Gemini app creates 30-second tracks with custom cover art generated by Nano Banana. This makes it easy to quickly share with friends by downloading or simply clicking the share link. The goal of these tracks isn’t to create a musical masterpiece, but rather to give you a fun, unique way to express yourself.
Creators can also explore Lyria 3 on YouTube’s Dream Track. Available in the U.S. and now rolling out to YouTube creators in other countries, Lyria 3 will enhance the quality of each unique Shorts soundtrack. Whether it’s creating a lyrical verse or a vibey backing track, being able to better customize the soundtrack will take creators’ Shorts to the next level.
New audio verification capabilities
All tracks generated in the Gemini app are embedded with SynthID, our imperceptible watermark for identifying Google AI-generated content. We are also giving you more tools to help identify AI content, broadening our verification capabilities in the Gemini app to include audio. Simply upload a file and ask if it was generated using Google AI, and Gemini will check for SynthID and use its own reasoning to return a response.
Our commitment to developing generative AI responsibly
Since we first launched Lyria in 2023, we’ve sought to develop this technology responsibly in collaboration with the music community. We’ve learned a lot through these collaborations and our experiments, like Music AI Sandbox, and have been very mindful of copyright and partner agreements as we’ve trained Lyria 3.
Music generation with Lyria 3 is designed for original expression, not for mimicking existing artists. If your prompt names a specific artist, Gemini will take this as broad creative inspiration and create a track that shares a similar style or mood. We also have filters in place to check outputs against existing content. We recognize that our approach might not be foolproof, so you can report content that may violate your rights or the rights of others. Additionally, in order to use our products, users must adhere to our Terms of Service and Gen AI prohibited use policies, which prohibit violations of others’ intellectual property and privacy rights.
Lyria 3 is available in the Gemini app for all users 18+ in English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean and Portuguese, with plans to expand quality and coverage of more languages. And Google AI Plus, Pro and Ultra subscribers will enjoy higher limits. Our goal with music generation in the Gemini app is to help you add a fun, custom soundtrack to your daily life. Try it out today at gemini.google.com.
