AI Mode gives users AI-generated answers based on public content from Facebook Groups, Reels, and other Meta apps.\n\nInstead of showing a standard list of search results, AI Mode uses Meta AI to answer questions directly within Facebook. Meta said responses are grounded in what people are publicly saying across its apps, including real experiences and recommendations.\n\n**AI answers in search. **AI Mode supports both broad discovery and specific questions. Users can search or explore their Feed and receive responses from Meta AI within Facebook. This gives Facebook a new way to surface public social content.\n\n- Groups and Reels could become part of how Meta answers questions about products, places, hobbies, and everyday advice.\n\n**Source selection is unclear. **Meta said the feature delivers “real answers from real people.” But it didn’t explain how AI Mode selects which public posts, Groups, or Reels appear in responses. It also didn’t say whether brands, creators, or publishers will be able to see when their content is used.\n\n**Why we care. **Facebook search is moving toward an AI answer experience built on public social content. That could change how people discover recommendations, local information, and brand-related conversations across Meta’s apps.\n\n**A familiar name.** Obviously, Meta’s new AI Mode feature shares its name with Google’s AI Mode. Meta gets no points for creativity.\n\n**What Meta is saying. **AI Mode is powered by Meta AI and Muse Spark. Meta didn’t explain how Muse Spark influences search ranking, source selection, or answer generation.\n\n- The search update was part of a broader Facebook AI rollout that also included new creative tools for photos, videos, profile pictures, and Stories.\n\n**The announcement.** [New AI Tools to Help You Make Things Happen on Facebook](https://about.fb.com/news/2026/06/new-ai-tools-to-help-you-make-things-happen-on-facebook/)\n\n*Search Engine Land is owned by Semrush.
