Google may test searching for a file from a device
Google search engine is likely testing a new feature that will allow users to find out information about any file downloaded from a computer. A screen recording demonstrating the operation of a possible new feature was posted by X (former Twitter) user Khushal Bherwani. Bherwani's message was noticed by the search engine portal Seroundtable.
Khushal Bherwani posted a screen recording of a supposedly new Google search feature in action on December 16th. In the search bar on the video, next to the photo search button, you can see a “paperclip” icon. By clicking on this button, the author of the video was able to attach a pdf file that was stored on his computer.
Judging by the video, after attaching a file, Google prompts the user to ask any question about the document (Ask anything about this file). To the request of the author of the video, “What is said in this document?” the system gave him results that apparently did not correspond to the contents of the file. Bherwani suggested that the system did not pay attention to the attached file because the developers were still testing this function.

It's likely Google could have given Khushal Bherwani and other users temporary access to test the feature. From his message, it is impossible to understand whether this test was widespread and whether downloading personal files will be available to all search engine users.
Now the function of downloading and analyzing a file is available in another Google product - the Gemini chatbot with artificial intelligence. Users with a paid Gemini Advanced subscription can access this feature. Other AI assistants, such as ChatGPT, provide the same functionality.
