Google brings Gemini in Chrome to US users, unveils agentic browsing capabilities, and more | TechCrunch
"Google announced Thursday that it's rolling out Gemini in Chrome to all Mac and Windows desktop users in the U.S. after previously limiting the capability to Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra subscribers. The tech giant also announced that it's bringing agentic capabilities to Chrome in the future, adding its AI Mode search feature to the address bar, launching new Gemini features, using AI to combat AI-generated scams, rolling out automatic password resets, and more."
"Gemini can now work across multiple tabs, allowing users to quickly compare and summarize information across multiple websites. For example, you could be planning your flight, hotel, and vacation in multiple tabs and work with Gemini to organize your trip. Or, you might be shopping for a new mattress and want to compare all of the different models you're looking at in multiple tabs."
"Additionally, Google is launching a deeper integration between Gemini in Chrome and other Google apps, like Calendar, YouTube, and Maps. Google says this will allow users to do things like schedule meetings, see location details, and more more without having to leave the page they're on. For example, if you're trying to find a a specific spot in a YouTube video, you can ask Gemini to take you there."
Gemini in Chrome is now available to U.S. Mac and Windows desktop users with English language settings. Users can click the Gemini icon to ask the assistant to clarify complex information on any webpage, such as converting a banana bread recipe to gluten-free. Gemini can operate across multiple tabs to compare and summarize information from several sites for tasks like trip planning or product comparisons. Gemini will soon retrieve previously visited pages and answer queries about past browsing. Deeper integration with Calendar, YouTube, and Maps enables scheduling, location details, and jumping to specific spots in videos. Agentic capabilities, AI Mode in the address bar, scam detection, and automatic password resets are coming.
