Google’s AI-ification of every app and service continues today with Chrome for Android and iOS. The mobile browser is getting a new shortcut for Google’s AI Mode, which it’s been heavily pushing lately in a bid to keep people using Google search instead of simply asking ChatGPT everything (or going to TikTok to search for stuff like the young’uns do).
Now, AI Mode is even more obviously present in mobile Chrome, with its new shortcut showing up just under the search box on the homepage. Thus, you’ll see it every time you open a new tab.
If you enter AI Mode, Google says you can “ask more complex, multi-part questions” and then “dive deeper into a topic with follow-up questions and relevant links”.
This shortcut is now available in the US, and will reach 160 more countries and territories “soon”. It will support additional languages too, like Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and more.
