Google’s New AI ‘Information Agents’ Can Send You Alerts on Topics You Care About
Google's efforts to transform online search and the ways we find information on the web continue, and there's now a new feature available in AI Mode: information agents. This new feature will keep tabs on news for you and ping you when needed. (At least, that's the idea.) The update was announced at Google I/O 2026 back in May, but it's now appearing for those with a Google AI Ultra subscription (that's the $99.99 or $199.99 per month one). Google's Robby Stein says that more people will be getting access in the summer.Google hasn't been any more specific than that, but presumably this will filter down to the other paid plans in the next few months, and eventually to everyone. I'm making use of my Ultra subscription here to get these information agents running.
