Google's Chrome browser is receiving an update that will enhance autofill capabilities using AI. On Wednesday, Google announced that Chrome will introduce an advanced autofill feature to help users complete online forms by drawing suggestions from Gmail.
This means Chrome may reference your email to suggest information you might need, such as flight confirmation numbers, membership IDs, tracking details, order numbers, addresses, phone numbers, or credit card numbers.
This update expands Google’s “Personal Intelligence” feature, which already allows users to connect their Google Apps to the AI assistant Gemini to retrieve specific details and use that information to answer more complex questions.
Although the impact may seem minor, this update could make Chrome more user-friendly, giving users another reason to continue using Google Chrome and stay within its AI ecosystem. It evokes one of Apple’s most popular features: automatically recognizing verification codes sent via SMS and displaying them above the keyboard, allowing users to enter them with a single tap.
Like other personalized intelligent features, users can choose whether to enable Enhanced Autofill in Chrome settings. Google states that sensitive data is encrypted.
This feature will be rolled out to U.S. desktop users, as well as on the iOS and Android apps for Gemini in Chrome.
