"Google announced late on Friday that Gemini 3 Pro is now powered Google AI Overviews for complex queries. Google actually said this last November, but then edited its story to say it was just AI Mode that was powered by Gemini 3 Pro and not AI Overviews. Now both AI Overviews and AI Mode can use Gemini 3 Pro. To be clear, Gemini 3 Pro is not used for all AI Overviews. It is used only when the query is "complex" enough to warrant Gemini 3 Pro."
"Update: AI Overviews now tap into Gemini 3 Pro for complex topics.Behind the scenes, Search will intelligently route your toughest Qs to our frontier model (just like we do in AI Mode) while continuing to use faster models for simpler tasks. Live in English globally for Google AI Pro & Ultra subs."
Gemini 3 Pro now supports AI Overviews for queries judged sufficiently complex to require a frontier model. Use of Gemini 3 Pro is selective and applies only when Search determines the query complexity warrants the model. Search dynamically routes the toughest questions to Gemini 3 Pro while continuing to use faster, lower-latency models for simpler tasks. The capability is live in English globally for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers. Both AI Mode and AI Overviews can leverage Gemini 3 Pro for high-complexity queries to deliver higher-quality responses without slowing routine queries.
