Well, I suppose it was only a matter of time, but Google is making AI Mode
harder to avoid. In the US, the company has begun rolling out an update for
Chrome on Android and iOS that adds an AI Mode shortcut to the browser's new
tab page. It's predominantly featured, appearing right below the browser's
signature search bar.

"This will let you ask more complex, multi-part questions, and then dive even
deeper into a topic with follow-up questions and relevant links," the company
said of the update. In the near future, Google plans to bring the shortcut to
160 additional countries, with support for other languages ΓÇö including
Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese ΓÇö on the way as well.

Google introduced AI Mode at the start of March when it previewed the feature
through its Labs program. Since then, it has been aggressively rolling out AI
Mode in nearly every market it operates, beginning this past May at I/O 2025
May when the company made the chatbot available to all US users.
