New Chrome update: Address bar now uses machine learning for better recommendations

Google is introducing machine learning models to the address bar of its Chrome browser to improve the user experience. The update, dubbed M124, makes the address bar more accurate and relevant, providing users with better webpage suggestions.

Here's What We Know

Previously, the address bar used manually created and configured formulas to provide recommendations, but this was not always optimal. With the introduction of machine learning models, Google will be able to collect new signals, train, evaluate and deploy new models, which will allow it to more accurately tailor recommendations to the needs of users.

One of the key aspects of this update is the ability of machine learning models to take into account the time since the last visit to a URL.

Google's future plans include research into creating specialised versions of machine learning models for different types of users and environments. This could include mobile, enterprise, or academic users, as well as different regions.
