Like OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT Agent<\/a>, Google is also planning to introduce an ability for Gemini in Chrome to be able to do \u201ctedious tasks\u201d on your behalf in the coming months, Charmaine D\u2019Silva, Chrome\u2019s director of product management, said in a briefing with reporters on Wednesday. It\u2019s designed to grocery shop for you from a grocery list in your email, reschedule deliveries, set up hair appointments, book restaurant reservations, and more, and it will have checkpoints in place for anything that\u2019s considered \u201chigh-risk\u201d or \u201cirreversible,\u201d she said. Google did not provide a specific launch date when asked by The Verge.<\/p>\n Other Gemini features are shipping sooner. The new features Google announced Thursday also include giving Gemini in Chrome access to Google Workspace for both regular and Enterprise users, with the rollout starting today, as well as enabling integrations with other Google products, like Calendar, YouTube, Maps, and more. The changes allow Gemini in Chrome to \u201cfind relevant information on your screen and also take action on your screen\u201d with those tools, D\u2019Silva said.<\/p>\n \u201cEnterprises are a pretty important focus for Chrome generally,\u201d D\u2019Silva said.<\/p>\n An animation showing how Gemini can work across your open tabs. Image: Google<\/p>\n On desktop Chrome, users will now be able to use the Gemini AI agent across multiple different tabs to compare products, summarize information from multiple sources, and recall previous pages from a user\u2019s browser history. That means that starting today, users will be able to can close their myriad tabs and then have the AI agent recall them.<\/p>\n \u201cSay you were looking at team-building activities and it\u2019s the end of your day \u2014 if you wanted to pick it back [up] the next day, typically what people would do was leave those tabs open,\u201d D\u2019Silva said. \u201cBut now you can close those tabs, and the next morning you can go and say,\u2019 Hey, can you show me those team-building activities that I was looking at yesterday? And we automatically show you.\u201d<\/p>\n On mobile, Gemini was already integrated into Android, but users will now be able to share the entire context of a page, not just what\u2019s currently on their screen, so they can ask \u201cdeeper questions,\u201d D\u2019Silva said. iPhone users will be able to access Gemini via the Chrome app soon.<\/p>\n Improvements to how AI agents work in users\u2019 browsers have been coming for a while. Last year, Anthropic introduced Computer Use, allowing Claude as an AI agent to use your browser and complete tasks on your behalf, and months later, OpenAI announced Operator, which was designed to do the same. This past July<\/a>, OpenAI combined its Deep research and Operator features into one agentic tool, ChatGPT Agent. That same month<\/a>, Perplexity launched Comet, its own AI-powered web browser. Atlassian just spent<\/a> $610 million to buy The Browser Company, makers of the AI-infused browser Dia.<\/p>\n 0 Comments<\/a>Follow topics and authors from this story to see more like this in your personalized homepage feed and to receive email updates.Hayden FieldClose Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<\/p>\n PlusFollow<\/p>\n See All by Hayden Field<\/a><\/p>\n AICloseAI<\/p>\n Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<\/p>\n PlusFollow<\/p>\n See All AI<\/a><\/p>\n GoogleCloseGoogle<\/p>\n Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<\/p>\n PlusFollow<\/p>\n See All Google<\/a><\/p>\n NewsCloseNews<\/p>\n Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.<\/p>\n PlusFollow<\/p>\n![\"An](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Gemini-in-Chrome_make-sense-of-your-tabs.gif\"\/)
