New Chrome 121 introduces AI-powered tab organizer, theme maker, and writing assistant

Google has launched Google Chrome 121 (only available to U.S. for now) incorporating new generative AI features, including a new "Tab Organizer" tool which automatically suggests tab groups based on the open tabs, allowing users to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. Users can activate it by selecting the "Organize tabs" option in the top-left corner on Windows or right on macOS.

The new version also includes a Theme Maker, which uses a text-to-image diffusion model previously used for generative AI wallpapers on Pixel and Android. This allows users to create custom themes for the New Tab Page based on various parameters such as subject, mood, visual style, and color. The feature can be accessed through the "Customize Chrome" side panel, click "Change theme," and then select "Create with AI."

Lastly, the company will also introduce a "Help me write" feature for writing assistance, where users can adjust the length and tone of the suggested content, similar to Aria, the Opera AI assistant, or Microsoft Copilot in Microsoft Edge.
