Browser Revolution: Google Chrome Integrates Gemini 3 with ‘Auto Browse’ & ‘Nano Banana’

In a historic shift for web browsing, Google has officially integrated its Gemini 3 model into Chrome, turning it into an “agentic browser” capable of performing tasks on your behalf.

What’s New in Chrome?

The latest rollout introduces two game-changing features that move Chrome beyond a passive viewing window:

1. “Auto Browse” Agent

Imagine asking your browser: “Find the cheapest flight to Dubai next week, compare prices, and table the options.”

Top-tier users can now let Auto Browse click links, fill forms, and synthesize complex information automatically. It’s a step towards the “Agentic Web” where software does the heavy lifting.

2. “Nano Banana” Image Editor

For creators, the new Nano Banana side panel brings professional AI image editing directly to the tab.

• Generate assets without leaving your workflow.
• Edit existing web images (remove backgrounds, change lighting) instantly.
• Streamlines ad creation and moodboarding for marketers.

Security First

With great power comes great responsibility. Google ensures that sensitive actions (like payments) require explicit user approval, and all agentic data is processed with strict privacy controls.
