Google Chrome for PCs to Get 'Help Me Write' AI as a Pop-up Whenever Typing

Google's Workspace Suite is not the only platform to experience assistive tech, as an upcoming update for the Chrome PC app will soon get its generative AI assistant to appear and help users. This is through the "Help Me Write" AI, currently available in Gmail, Docs, Messages, and other apps with AI integration, with the feature highly accessible to all.

Chrome's version of the AI will center on a pop-up that will appear whenever a user is typing into a text field, for example, when looking to post via social media.

Google Chrome to Get the 'Help Me Write' AI

'Help Me Write' AI will soon make its way to Chrome's web browser app for PCs, with Google referring to this as the "Compose" or "CCO" feature, but under the same branding of its renowned generative AI. It is similar to the feature present on Google Docs, Messages, Keep, Gmail, and more, appearing whenever users type something on text fields online.

The code is currently hidden in chrome://flags, and it will be available for users to access on the page itself, or via the right-click menu on the browser.

According to 9to5 Google, this generative AI assistant is expected to arrive by Chrome's version 122 release, which is set for February 2024 or later.

'Help Me Write' AI to Pop-Up When Typing

Like the feature live in the Workspace suite now, the Help Me Write AI for Chrome will pop up whenever a user is typing in the text field, and it is available on different websites and social media platforms. It could create content based on prompts, but it can also scan the webpage's content to get more context, with Google's AI helping deliver "contextual writing suggestions for reviews, posts, and more."
