Google Chrome is upping its AI game with three new features aimed at making browsing the web simpler, safer, and more personalized. These experimental, generative AI-powered tools focus on tab organization, custom themes, and writing assistance, promising a smoother and more intuitive online experience.
Smartly organize your tabs
Ever feel overwhelmed by open tabs? Chrome’s new “Group Tabs” feature comes to the rescue. Right-click any tab and select “Organize similar tabs,” or click the drop-down arrow next to the tab, and watch the AI automatically group related tabs together. No more hunting for that travel page amidst a sea of news articles! This is a boon for multitaskers juggling research, shopping, or project work.
Create your own themes with AI
Remember those stunning AI-generated wallpapers on Pixel 8? Chrome brings that magic to themes with “Generative AI themes.” Choose your desired mood, style, and color, and the AI whips up a personalized theme right before your eyes. No more browsing theme galleries or fiddling with settings. Customize your Chrome canvas with your unique flair.
Write Like a Pro
Need help articulating your thoughts online? “Help Me Write” expands its reach beyond Google documents. Right-click any text field on any website, and the AI will offer suggestions for improving your phrasing, grammar, and even tone. Whether crafting that perfect email, leaving a thoughtful review, or composing a comment, Chrome becomes your writing sidekick.
