Google just gave Chrome a serious AI upgrade, rolling out 10 new features powered by its Gemini model. These new features are designed to make your browser more productive, smarter and a lot more personal.
If you’re like me and have 20 tabs open at any given time, and you’ve forgotten which page you saw those great running shoes on, Chrome’s new AI features are designed for you.
One feature can recall webpages you’ve visited, even if you can’t remember the name. Another actually summarizes entire tabs and answers questions on the fly. There’s even a “personal assistant mode” coming soon that can help you book appointments or handle errands online for you.

Out of the ten new features, these three are the ones I’m most excited about.
1. Memory for everything I’ve browsed

Starting this week for users in the U.S., Chrome now includes Gemini, Google’s AI assistant. Directly inside your browser, you can ask it to explain, summarize and compare all your tabs.
So next time you’re reading an article and want to dive into the details or get clarification, Gemini can break it all down for you. Or, if you’re comparing flights and hotel options, Gemini will give you a summary so you don’t have to click back and forth.
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone down a rabbit hole, closed my laptop, and then a week later thought: where was that thing I wanted to check out again?

With Chrome’s new AI memory, I can just type in natural language. Something like “What was that standing desk I saw last week?” and Chrome pulls it up instantly.
As someone juggling a lot, this one is sure to make my busy life much easier and productive.
2. Multitab AI magic

If you’re someone who leaves 15 tabs open while researching (guilty!), Gemini can now analyze them all together. That means accessing summaries and takeaways faster and less tab hoarding.

So instead of hopping back and forth between articles, I can get a single digest of what’s important. For someone who’s juggling work, researching, shopping for the family and keeping kids’ schedules organized, this is a lifesaver.
3. Built in scam protection with Gemini Nano

This one feels less flashy, but honestly, it’s huge for me. Chrome now uses Gemini Nano in the background to detect phishing pages, fake virus pop-ups, and, yes, even those too-good-to-be-true giveaway scams.
I’ve seen enough shady pop-ups on my parents’ computer to know this is going to save a lot of people’s headaches, and maybe even money.
Hopefully this also means fewer interruptions from pop-ups. You know the ones that suddenly appear the minute you start reading? Chrome now lets you automatically say goodbye to those, keeping them from interrupting you for a better user experience.
Bonus favorite: One-click password resets

Now, if one of your saved passwords gets exposed in a data breach, Chrome will offer a one-click way to reset it on supported sites (like Spotify, Duolingo, etc.). Fast, without disrupting your online experience.
The takeaway
Google Chrome is so much more than a browser now; it’s essentially becoming an AI-powered assistant that works in the background while you work. These tools are designed to save you time, reduce mental clutter and make the web more useful and less chaotic.
Of course, this does raise questions about privacy, particularly if your browser remembers everything. While there are ways to opt out, and Google says users will have stricter controls, users will need to weigh the pros and cons of these new features.
If you’re in the U.S. and using Chrome on a Mac or Windows PC, some of these AI features are available right now. More are coming soon — especially the memory and agentic features.
Make sure your browser is up to date and signed into your Google account to access the latest Gemini integrations.
