Google secretly turned Chrome into an AI browserđ
Google brings Gemini to Chrome with AI summaries, smart search & scam blocking; Amazon adds agentic AI to Seller Assistant; Arc Institute debuts first AI-generated genomes.
AI is accelerating at every front, consumer, business, and science.
This week, Google brought Gemini into Chrome, transforming the browser into an intelligent assistant that summarizes pages, compares tabs, blocks scams in real time, and automates web tasks.
Meanwhile, Amazon supercharged its Seller Assistant with agentic AI, turning it into a proactive business partner that plans, reasons, and executes tasksâfrom inventory optimization to ad creationâhelping sellers stay ahead.
And in science, the Arc Institute achieved a world-first: the creation of AI-generated synthetic genomes, designing bacteriophages that outperform natural ones and opening new frontiers for personalized therapies against antibiotic resistance.
Chrome Gets Gemini: Summaries, Smarts, Security
Google Chrome update deeply integrates Gemini, making the browser an intelligent assistant that summarizes web pages, compares content across tabs, and blocks scams in real time; standout features include a Gemini button for instant multi-tab summaries, agentic capabilities allowing tasks such as booking appointments and managing passwords, an AI-powered omnibox for natural language search and smart suggestions, and integration with Google services like YouTube and Calendar. Chromeâs AI now proactively blocks billions of scam notifications daily, lets users search browsing history with natural commands, summarizes videos, and automates repetitive web tasks; initial rollout is for US desktop, with mobile and enterprise support coming soon
Amazon Elevates Seller Assistant with Agentic AI Power

Amazon has enhanced its Seller Assistant with advanced agentic AI capabilities, transforming it from a reactive tool into an autonomous business partner that proactively helps sellers manage and grow their businesses. Powered by Amazon Bedrock and leveraging foundation models like Amazon Nova and Anthropic Claude, the upgraded assistant not only answers questions but also reasons, plans, and executes tasks such as inventory optimization, pricing strategy, shipment planning, and compliance monitoring. It alerts sellers to issues like slow-moving products before storage fees accrue and helps navigate complex regulatory requirements with step-by-step guidance. Additionally, the assistant supports marketing through Creative Studio, generating professional-quality ads based on real-time shopping trends. This AI-driven tool, currently available to U.S. sellers and expanding internationally, aims to streamline operations, boost efficiency, and enable sellers to focus more on innovation and growth while maintaining full control over decisions.

First Ever AI-Generated Genome

Researchers at the Arc Institute have successfully created the first viable synthetic bacteriophage genomes using advanced AI-driven genome language models. By leveraging models named Evo 1 and Evo 2, they generated complete phage genomes modeled on the lytic phage ΊX174, resulting in 16 functional synthetic phages exhibiting significant evolutionary novelty. These AI-designed phages demonstrated greater fitness in growth and lysis compared to natural counterparts and could overcome bacterial resistance rapidly when used in combination. This breakthrough represents a foundational step toward customized phage therapies targeting antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections and demonstrates the promise of generative genome design for real-world biomedical applications.
