Three new AI capabilities for Chrome have been released by Google: natural language search for browsing history, integrated Google Lens for visual searches, and Tab Compare for AI-generated product descriptions. Soon, these changes will be available in the United States, improving user experience and search capabilities.
According to MacRumors, California-based Google has introduced three state-of-the-art AI technologies designed to improve its Chrome browser by utilizing the most recent developments in Google AI and Gemini models.
As to the publication, Google Lens has been seamlessly incorporated into the Chrome desktop browser, enabling users to perform drag-and-drop searches for visual content straight from their screen. Chrome users can obtain visually similar results by highlighting any portion of a webpage, including photos and text.
According to reports, users can refine these searches according to color, brand, and other details. They can even elect to pose follow-up queries to delve deeper into a subject. Users will be able to examine product summaries produced by AI in numerous tabs in a single, consolidated view thanks to a new feature called Tab Compare. When making judgments about what to buy, this is very helpful for comparing product specifications, costs, and reviews.
According to the publication, Google is also releasing a natural language search function for Chrome browsing history. With the help of this feature, users can ask questions like, “What was that ice cream shop I looked at last week?” to find previously visited websites. No information from the incognito mode is included in this optional function, which you can turn on or off in the Chrome settings.
The forthcoming Chrome version, which is scheduled to be released in the coming days, will include the AI-powered Google Lens feature. Next, over the course of the next few weeks, the Tab Compare and browsing history search capabilities will be made available, first in the United States.
Meanwhile, Google is getting ready to launch the Pixel 9, its premium smartphone line, on August 13. The performance and specs of the new devices, with a focus on the Tensor G4 chipset, have been revealed by recent leaks. Even though the new chipset might not provide significant power improvements, increased efficiency is anticipated.
