NOW LET US Article – Google’s AI Mode update lets you open links without leaving the page

Google is upgrading AI Mode in Chrome with side-by-side link opening and the ability to search across open tabs for a more seamless research experience.

Google is upgrading AI Mode in Chrome with a new feature that will allow you to open links to sources alongside your chat. Now, instead of automatically opening a new tab, clicking a source will open the website side by side with AI Mode, allowing you to ask follow-up questions about what’s on the page.

You can now use AI Mode to search your tabs, too.

Launched last year, AI Mode is the chatbot-like search feature that lives within a tab on the left side of Google’s search engine. Google has added several new features to the tool over the past year, including the ability to generate images of outfits and decor based on your descriptions, visualize your travel plans, and find restaurant reservations. It also recently began showing links to sources more prominently amid concerns that its AI-powered search features are negatively impacting traffic to news publishers and other websites.

Additionally, if you’re using AI Mode in Chrome on desktop or mobile, you can now use the feature to select specific tabs for it to draw from, rather than pasting in separate links. To do this, select the “plus” button in AI Mode or in Google’s search box, and you’ll see a list of your recent tabs that you can select. AI Mode will then answer your question based on your tabs. Google says you can also add images or files to these searches as well.

These AI Mode updates are available now to users in the US, with a global expansion coming “soon.”
