All the following said it's doubtful that the answer to which actor from which movie rode in a chariot will vary whether I'm searching from Chicago, Hollywood or Rome.

Is it mostly your IP address that determines what AI mode searches turn up? Does the answer vary by geographic location?
The IP address is a factor, but it is not the sole determinant of AI mode search results. [1, 2] The answer does vary by geographic location, as the IP address helps determine which results are most relevant to a user's physical location. [1, 2]
Here is a breakdown of how it works:
Geographic Relevance: An AI uses your IP address primarily to provide results relevant to your region. [1, 2] For instance, a search for "weather" or "restaurants" will show local results. [1, 2] Search engines aim to be locally relevant, and the IP is a strong signal for this. [1]
Other Determinants: Many other factors besides your IP address influence AI search results:
Search Query: The words you use are the most important factor. [2]
User History: Past searches, browsing history, and interaction data (if you are signed in) help personalize results. [1, 2]
Time and Date: Current events or time-sensitive data influence what appears. [2]
Device Type: Searches might be optimized differently for a mobile phone versus a desktop computer. [2]
Algorithm Updates: The underlying AI algorithms are constantly updated, which affects results globally. [2]
In summary, while the IP address is a key indicator for geographic relevance, the results are determined by a complex interplay of these various factors. [1, 2] The physical location absolutely influences the results you see, but it's not the only piece of information the AI uses.
