Google Chrome Feature Will Soon Allow Conversations With Search History

Google announced its upcoming feature, adding a new AI-powered tool through its family of large language models used on its AI systems. A Gemini-equipped address bar will soon have the capability to show relevant Chrome history pages by asking it questions.

"The high level is really wanting to introduce a more conversational interface to Chrome's history so people don't have to remember URLs," said Parisa Tabriz, vice president of Chrome, in an interview before the feature's announcement.

The feature is slated to be available to Chrome's desktop users in the U.S. for its initial release. The tool will only be enabled if the user grants permission. It won't also work under Incognito mode.

Google Assures Safety Amid Plans to Scrape Browsing History for New Feature

Several users might have reservations about the feature due to the risk of exposing browsing history to train Google's AI models. However, the company clarified that the tool will not directly use the tabs and history for its AI training.

Tabriz stated that they know that browsing history contains personal and sensitive data. Hence, the company designed the feature with its core to protect the user's privacy.

Google also announced that it will debut its Lens feature on Chrome, allowing desktop users to easily search on the web without leaving the current tab. The feature has been available on both Android and iOS devices.
