29 Jan
Summary
- Gemini AI in Chrome now offers auto browse for multi-step tasks.
- It can research flights, schedule appointments, and fill forms.
- Nano Banana AI image generator is also now in Chrome.
Google has introduced a significant AI upgrade to its Chrome browser with the new "auto browse" feature powered by Gemini. This capability allows the AI to perform multi-step tasks on behalf of users, initially launching for AI Pro and Ultra subscribers in the US. The AI agent can research flight and hotel costs, schedule appointments, complete online forms, and manage subscriptions.
Previously an assistant for questions and summarization, Gemini in Chrome now offers advanced features. It can identify items in photos, find similar products online, add them to a cart, and apply discount codes while respecting budgets. The AI can also use saved passwords for account logins.
The Gemini interface has shifted to a right-side panel and now integrates with Gmail, Calendar, Maps, Shopping, and Flights. This allows it to access and act upon information across these Google services for tasks like travel planning, referencing emails for event details and suggesting flights.
Additionally, Nano Banana, Google's AI image generator, is now accessible within the Gemini in Chrome panel for all users, enabling image editing via text prompts. Google is also planning to bring its "Personal intelligence" feature, which uses past conversations and linked data from Gmail and Calendar, to Chrome in the coming months.
