Overview
- Gemini in Chrome is now rolling out to Mac and Windows users in the U.S. in English at no extra cost, expanding beyond prior AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.
- The assistant can summarize pages, compare and consolidate information across multiple tabs, integrate with Google apps like Calendar, YouTube and Maps, and will soon help recall previously visited pages by description.
- AI Mode is coming to the Chrome address bar later this month in the U.S., enabling complex queries, contextual suggestions about the page, and AI Overviews with follow‑up prompts.
- Agentic browsing is slated for the coming months, allowing Gemini to perform multi‑step tasks such as adding groceries to a cart or booking appointments, with pauses for review on high‑risk actions.
- Google is adding protections including on‑device Gemini Nano scam detection and one‑click password changes on supported sites, with Workspace enterprise availability promised in the coming weeks and iOS access coming soon.
