Google Chrome's autofill feature can now access Gmail data to automatically fill in forms.

What it means

Google Chrome is rolling out an AI-powered update to its autofill feature that can scan a user's Gmail inbox for relevant information—such as flight confirmation numbers, membership IDs, and shipping details—and automatically suggest them when filling out online forms. The feature, called 'enhanced autofill,' uses Google's Gemini AI model and is initially launching in the US. It aims to reduce manual searching across tabs and inboxes by pulling data directly from emails.

Accuracy & sourcesGrounded

The claim is well-supported. The primary source is Google's own announcement on its official blog, and multiple technology outlets (TechCrunch, The Verge, Android Police) have independently reported the same details. As a secondary aggregation with a direct link to the announcement, the reporting is accurate and reflects the official rollout.
