O Google just launched a new shortcut for Chrome which allows users to start conversations with the Gemini directly from the browser's address bar, along with a broader expansion of Gemini for apps like Maps and YouTube.

How it works:
- Type it "@gemini” followed by a question in the Chrome address bar to get answers from artificial intelligence (IA) without having to navigate to a separate website.
- The feature builds on existing shortcuts like “@bookmarks” and “@history”, making AI chat as fluid as other browser functions.
- The Extensions feature of Gemini now also connects the chatbot to Maps, YouTube, Hotels and Workspace.
- For now, the features are only rolling out to supported languages and countries.
Why it matters:
O Gemini just got a lot more accessible – the shortcut and integrations not only increase the chatbot's reach, but also introduce the technology to a wave of users who aren't yet familiar with AI. Subtle but impactful changes like these are what drive big changes in user habits.
