Google now lets you explore the web side-by-side with AI Mode: Details

Google has introduced a new way to browse the web with AI Mode in Chrome. According to Google, the latest update allows users to explore websites and interact with AI simultaneously without switching between tabs. The new features include the ability to open web pages side-by-side with the AI Mode interface, as well as the option to include multiple tabs, images and files in queries.

AI Mode in Chrome

With the updated AI Mode in Chrome, users can now open web pages side-by-side with the AI interface. This means when you click on a link, it appears next to AI Mode instead of replacing your current view. As a result, users can read content, compare information and ask follow-up questions without losing their original context.

For example, if someone is searching for a coffee maker, they can describe their needs in AI Mode and get suggestions. When they open a product page, it appears alongside the AI Mode chat, allowing them to ask questions like how easy it is to clean or whether it fits their requirements. The AI uses both the webpage and broader web data to provide answers, helping users make quicker decisions.

Search across tabs and files

Google said that early testers say that this feature reduces the need for constant tab switching and helps users stay focused. By combining search and browsing into one view, Google said that it is aiming to make information discovery more efficient and easier to manage within Chrome.
