Gemini can now click, compare, and navigate the web on your behalf, handling multi-step tasks.

Google has built an AI agent called Auto Browse directly into Chrome. The feature, currently desktop-only for eligible US subscribers, uses Gemini to perform multi-step tasks like product research and price comparison across the web. Users maintain control, as the agent requires confirmation for actions like purchases, effectively turning the browser into an autonomous assistant for completing complex online workflows.
Why It Matters
It automates tedious web research and shopping, potentially saving professionals hours on routine online tasks.
