Gemini 3 Pro Is Changing How People Search: Here Are 8 Prompts to Try
Google Search is no longer just about blue links and quick answers. With Gemini 3 Pro now built directly into Search through AI Mode, Google is quietly reshaping how people plan, learn, and accomplish tasks online.
Instead of bouncing between chatbots and browser tabs, users can now ask deeper, more conversational questions and get structured, visual, and context-aware responses, all without leaving Google Search.
Gemini 3 Pro, which launched in late 2025, is Google’s most capable consumer-facing AI model. It handles text, images, long documents, reasoning, and planning in a single system. Below are eight practical prompts that show how people are already using it inside Google Search.
1. Untangle your logistics knot
Planning a trip isn’t just about destinations; it’s about tedious details. Gemini’s new “agentic” skills aim to handle multi-step tasks.
A prompt like “Find the best flight options from Miami to Toronto for the last weekend of June, comparing layovers vs. direct. Then, using the arrival times, suggest three downtown hotels under $200/night with easy airport transit access” lets the AI do the cross-referencing legwork, presenting you with a synthesized shortlist.
The result often includes sections, images, suggested flight options and durations, transit to the hotel, and hotel prices, rather than plain text.
2. Master any skill with a custom tutor
Learning is better with visuals. Whether it’s a golf swing, a guitar chord, or a software tool, ask for a tailored guide.
Prompt: “I’m a beginner learning to knit. Create a weekly 4-week progression plan. For each new stitch, include the name, a simple written instruction, and describe what a clear photo or diagram of the hand position should show.”
It can structure the journey and tell you exactly what to look for, making those online tutorials far less frustrating.
3. Design your space like a pro
Redecorating is equal parts inspiration and headache. Gemini 3 Pro’s upgraded visual analysis can help. Upload a photo of your cramped living room or a basic floor plan sketch and prompt:
“Analyze this room image. Suggest a furniture layout to maximize seating and light. Recommend a color scheme based on the existing blue sofa, and list three common decorating mistakes to avoid in a space this size.”
The prompt helps Gemini 3 Pro move from generic advice to a personalized design consult. This is useful for home projects, offices, and even small studio setups.
4. Crack your next social dilemma
Group chat blowing up about where to eat? Instead of scrolling reviews, ask the AI.
Try: “My friends are visiting. One is vegan, one is gluten-free, and we all want something trendy. Find three dinner options in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood with menus that work for everyone.”
It can process those complex, real-world constraints and serve up tailored suggestions, often with photos and key details pulled from across the web.
5. Decode the fine print for you
Facing a dense document? Upload a PDF of a contract, warranty, or policy and ask for clarity.
A prompt such as “Read this apartment lease. List the 5 most important tenant responsibilities in plain language, flag any unusual clauses, and summarize the early termination policy” can extract the needle from the haystack, saving you time and potential headaches.
6. Get unstuck on creative projects
Writer’s block or a blank canvas? Use the AI as a creative sparring partner. Feed it your draft or idea and ask for targeted help:
“Here’s the opening paragraph of my short story. Rewrite it in two distinct tones: one dark and suspenseful, and one lighthearted and humorous. Then suggest three possible next plot twists for each version.”
It’s less about having it written for you and more about using it to explore directions you might not have considered rapidly.
7. Become a video savant in seconds
We’ve all saved a video tutorial to watch “later.” Now you can upload a long YouTube link or a video file and let Gemini 3 Pro handle the hard work.
A prompt like “Summarize this hour-long lecture on blockchain into five key concepts for a total beginner and draft a study plan for me” yields a concise breakdown and a step-by-step guide to actually learning it. It’s like having a super-efficient TA on demand.
8. Turn a brainstorm into a blueprint
Have a half-baked idea for an app, a party game, or a community event? Use the AI as your co-creator.
For example: “Outline a simple, playable card game for 4 players about surviving on a deserted island. Include the game objective, 5 types of cards with their effects, and a basic turn structure.”
In moments, you have a working prototype to refine, moving from “wouldn’t it be cool if…” to a concrete set of rules.
A new way to search
Gemini 3 Pro in Google Search is less about replacing traditional search and more about extending it. By combining search results with reasoning, visuals, and planning tools, Google is betting that users want fewer clicks and more clarity.
As Google continues to expand AI Mode, these prompts offer a glimpse into how Search is shifting from finding links to getting answers that actually feel finished.
