Google says “Enhanced protection” feature in Chrome now uses AI

Google has quietly updated the description of one of Chrome’s security features, “Enhanced protection,” to confirm that it will be powered by AI in a future release.

It’s unclear what has changed, but as spotted by Leo on X, Google is updating its Enhanced protection mode in Chrome’s Safe Browsing feature to include AI-powered protection.

This feature now uses AI to provide real-time protection against dangerous sites, downloads, and extensions.
