| Greetings, |  Register for Future Festival here!
This week's AI innovations reveal how artificial intelligence is quietly reshaping everyday interactions, from browsing and shopping to how we engage with technology at home.
Google has rolled out its new Auto Browse feature for Chrome, powered by the Gemini 3 generative AI model, allowing users to delegate web-based tasks like navigating sites or gathering info, marking a major shift in how we use browsers. In the smart home space, Dreame Technology introduced its Beyond Smart ecosystem, a suite of AI-enhanced appliances that blend robotics and connectivity to create a more adaptive, responsive living environment. Meanwhile in retail, the Retail AI Council launched the Shopper Context Protocol (SCP), a cross-industry framework designed to keep customer relationships at the center of the AI shopping experience, ensuring that personalization doesn't come at the expense of trust.
