Google recently put on a new ‘smart coat’ for Chrome, bringing three super AI assistants, which are like smart elves in the browser, specialising in making your online experience smoother and more fun!
The first to appear is the ‘desktop version of Google Lens’ - this little assistant is a ‘master of map recognition’. Imagine you're surfing the web and suddenly you see a picture of your favourite bag or a paragraph that appeals to you, so you don't have to copy and paste it to find the answer. Simply click on the magical little lens icon next to the address bar of your browser, or right-click and select ‘Look with Google Lens’, and it will instantly recognise the treasure in the picture or interpret the information in the text to help you quickly find out all the secrets about it, and all of this without you needing to leave the current page.
Next up is Tab Compare, a tab comparison tool. Have you ever had the trouble of opening several tabs to compare different products when you want to buy something, only to be dazzled by switching back and forth? Now, with this little helper, it's like a super organiser, quietly organising all the product information in all the tabs (such as size, features, price, and how others rate it) together, so you can see it all at a glance. This way, you can easily compare and make the best choice. Last but not least, there is also a ‘memory traveller’ - a function to review your browsing history. It uses Google's amazing AI technology to help you organise your past browsing footprints, like time travel, and bring you back to those moments that have captivated you. Whether it's finding lost inspiration or reminiscing about an interesting exploration, it becomes a breeze.
This new skill is a boon to online shoppers. When you are wandering through multiple web pages, trying to find the ‘perfect choice’ amongst the many products, it acts as an intimate shopping consultant, quietly collecting and organising all those product details, performance parameters and customer reviews that are scattered all over the place for you. Instead of switching back and forth between tabs like in a jigsaw puzzle, everything is under its control, making it easy for you to make the smartest choice.
When it comes to the ‘Memory Shuttle’ feature, it's more like your personal memory keeper, but this time it uses the magic of artificial intelligence to engage you in a heartwarming dialogue about the past. It will take you from one website to another in a relaxed and enjoyable way and will awaken those forgotten sparks of inspiration, interesting stories or important information. And, this sweet service, which will debut first in the U.S., is so respectful of your right to choose that if you don't want to take part in this journey back in time, you can gracefully decline with just one click.
The most reassuring thing is that Google solemnly promises that this process of memory travelling will never touch any traces left by you in the no-trace mode, just like a friend who keeps his mouth shut and vows to protect your secret garden. This kind of thoughtfulness and respect, so that every time you browse more peace of mind.
In short, the three AI assistants brought by Google to Chrome are like three caring guides for your online journey, making every click full of surprises and convenience! When it comes to privacy and security, Google has come up with full sincerity this time, promising to keep the users’ secrets to themselves, and every click under the no-trace mode will quietly melt in the corner so no one knows. Such a promise, how can people not be moved?
All in all, the new features that Google has brought to Chrome are like adding a splash of colour to our lives, making surfing the web more fun, efficient and reassuring. In the future, when we open Chrome again, we may be able to hear those AI assistants whispering in our ears: ‘Hey, friend, are you ready? Let's start this smart and fun online journey together!’
