Google’s latest update to its Chrome browser on Mac, Windows, and Linux in the US includes a new generative AI feature called “Help Me Write.” The feature, based on Google’s Gemini generative AI models, does exactly what it says: helps you write English content on websites.
“Help me write” can be used anywhere there is a text field in which a user writes something. For example, if you want to write a product review on Amazon, you can use “Help me write” to provide key features. Google said that “Help Me Write” can understand the context of the website you are on, so the feature can write with relevant content.
“Help me write” is in Chrome version M122. To check the Chrome version, launch Chrome and go to Chromium> Oneabout Google Chrome. If you don’t have version M122, quit Chrome and relaunch it; The app will update when launched. Here’s how to enable and use the Help Me Write feature in Google Chrome for Mac.
