Google’s AI Mode update lets you open links without leaving the page

Google is upgrading Chrome’s AI mode with a new feature that lets you open links to sources alongside chat. Now, instead of automatically opening a new tab, clicking on the source will open the website along with AI mode, allowing you to ask follow-up questions about what’s on the page.

Additionally, if you’re using AI mode in Chrome on desktop or mobile, you can now use the feature to select specific tabs to take advantage of, instead of pasting them into separate links. To do this, select the “plus” button in AI mode or in the Google search box, and you will be shown a list of recent tabs that you can select. AI mode will then answer your question based on your tabs. Google says you can also add images or files to these searches, too.

These AI mode updates are available now to users in the US, with a global expansion coming soon.
