2. Is AI Mode available globally? AI Mode in the omnibox initially supports English queries in the U.S., with plans to expand to more languages and regions in subsequent updates.
3. How does Chrome’s AI protect against scams? It uses machine learning to detect new phishing patterns, block malicious sites, and warn users about suspicious permissions or compromised passwords in real time.
4. Can Gemini work offline? No, Gemini requires an internet connection to process queries and access cloud-based AI models for accurate, up-to-date responses.
5. Will AI features slow down the browser? Chrome’s AI features are optimized to run efficiently in the background, with minimal impact on performance, even during resource-intensive tasks like video analysis.
