Google developers continue to add artificial intelligence-based features to their Chrome browser. This time, the browser received a web page analysis tool that uses a neural network to identify fraudulent sites.

The innovation will be available to Chrome users for Windows, macOS and Linux operating systems. Its important feature is that the algorithm works completely locally on the user’s device and does not transfer data to Google servers. This approach will allow the Internet giant to avoid potential problems and accusations of violating the confidentiality of user data. According to the source, the feature to detect fraudulent sites has now appeared in one of the recent beta versions of Chrome on the Canary channel. The developers have added an appropriate option to the browser settings to activate this AI tool.
It is noted that the new Google feature has certain similarities with the “malicious application blocker” that Microsoft recently announced for its Edge browser. This algorithm uses a neural network to detect cases of cyber fraud and various malicious sites. However, the Microsoft option is not enabled by default, requiring users to enable it themselves in Edge settings. In contrast, Chrome’s anti-fraud AI algorithm will be enabled by default when it arrives in stable versions of the browser.
