Google’s 2025 global search trends highlight how billions of users turned to the platform for answers spanning entertainment, technology, and politics. Among the most-searched topics were the assassination of U.S. political activist Charlie Kirk, Netflix’s animated hit *K-pop Demon Hunters*, and the viral collectible toy character Labubu from Pop Mart. These topics dominated global curiosity and reflected the year’s cultural pulse. Artificial intelligence also emerged as a major search driver, particularly around Google’s own AI model, Gemini. Queries such as “What is AI?” and “How does Gemini work?” surged, showing that public interest in AI extended far beyond experts. Meanwhile, geopolitical issues like the Iran-Israel conflict and the U.S. government shutdown pushed political searches to new highs. The data underscores how Google remains central to daily digital life, with users relying on it for both breaking news and everyday information such as weather, translations, and social media updates.
