3. ‘Help Me Write’ Feature:

These new features mark the beginning of Google’s plan to integrate AI and machine learning into Chrome. While some critics have questioned the depth of Google’s AI strategies, particularly with previous efforts like Gemini, the company continues to push the boundaries of AI integration in its products. The upcoming Gemini Ultra, Google’s most powerful AI model, remains a point of anticipation for the future.
