Meta rolled out AI Mode on Facebook Monday, a new search feature that generates AI-powered results from publicly shared content across Meta's platforms. The feature joins a suite of new AI tools the company is introducing to boost user engagement.

AI Mode appears alongside traditional Facebook search options like People and Marketplace. Instead of returning standard links, the feature generates AI-driven results pulled from public posts across Meta's ecosystem. Your publicly shared Facebook content can inform these AI-generated search results. Meta says the tool helps users discover information in a new format, moving beyond conventional link-based search. The rollout includes additional AI features launching today: photo presets that digitally swap sports jerseys onto fan images and template suggestions for photo collages. The moves reflect Meta's broader push to integrate AI across its platforms and retain users amid competition from other tech companies racing to deploy advanced AI capabilities. The company has been emphasizing AI features as a key strategy to drive engagement and maintain relevance in its core products.
