How is Google's AI Mode so fast and so good?

5 points by nthypes 15 days ago · 0 comments · 1 min read


I've been trying out Google's new AI Mode in Search and I'm genuinely curious about the technical architecture behind it. The response times are incredibly fast - often sub-second - and the quality of answers seems consistently high.

What's particularly impressive: - Speed: Near-instant responses even for complex queries - Quality: Accurate, well-sourced answers with citations - Integration: Seamlessly pulls from the knowledge graph and fresh web results

I'm wondering: - What model(s) are they running under the hood? - How are they achieving such low latency at scale? - Are they using some kind of speculative execution or caching strategy? - How does their infrastructure differ from standalone LLM APIs?

For those who've worked on similar systems or have insights into Google's approach, I'd love to hear your thoughts on what makes this possible.
