Google has announced the expansion of its Google AI Plus subscription service to 35 new markets, including the United States, further advancing the commercialization of artificial intelligence technology. Priced at $7.99 per month in the U.S. market, users can access two generative AI models, Gemini 3 Pro and Nano Banana Pro, within the Gemini app, supporting multi-scenario content creation and interaction.

This upgrade significantly enhances multimedia creation capabilities. Subscribers can utilize the AI film and video production module within the Flow tool, enabling automated processes such as script generation and video editing. NotebookLM has added academic research and writing assistance tools, supporting literature analysis, outline generation, and cross-document content integration. The family sharing feature allows up to five members to use the service simultaneously, reducing access costs for multiple users.

Market analysis suggests that Google is expanding its user reach through differentiated pricing strategies. Compared to the free version, AI Plus subscribers gain priority access to the latest model updates and receive higher quotas for generated content. However, competitors have already launched similar multimodal creation tools, requiring Google to continuously optimize model performance to maintain competitiveness.
