Google now lets you explore the web side-by-side with AI mode

Google announced on Thursday that it is introducing a new way to explore the web using it Artificial intelligence fashion,Conversational search experience. Now, when you use AI mode on Chrome desktop, clicking on the link will open the web page along with AI mode.

The goal is to make it easier to explore related websites, compare details and ask follow-up questions while maintaining the context of your search, says the tech giant.

For example, if you want to buy a new coffee maker, you can describe what you are looking for in AI mode and get a range of options. Once you click on one, you can open the retailer’s website along with AI mode and ask specific questions, like “How easy is this to clean?” AI mode will then use context from the page and across the web to answer your questions.

“Our early testers loved that they didn’t have to constantly switch tabs to get help with a comprehensive article or long video,” Google explained in a blog post. “They found that having both search and the web side by side helped them focus on their tasks while exploring useful web pages.”

Google also announced a new way to search through Chrome tabs you’re already looking at.

On Chrome desktop or mobile, you can tap the new Plus menu in the search box on the New Tab page or in AI mode, then select recent tabs to include in your search. This means you can mix and match multiple tabs, images, or files and bring that context to your searches in AI mode.

For example, if you’re searching for local hiking trails and already have some tabs open, you can add them to your search and claim similar trails in a different location. Or, if you’re studying for a statistics exam, you can bring in context from open tabs, class notes, lecture slides, and more to ask for examples to illustrate the concept.

The new AI Mode updates are now available in the US and Google plans to expand them to additional regions in the future.
