Sometimes generative AI search results are far superior to what Google offers. Instead of having to wade through a lengthy list of sites that can get bogged down with ads or paywalls, you can more quickly get a question answered and learn about what you searched for.
Of course, generative AI tools aren’t perfect. You have to contend with two simple realities: 1) the results will be incorrect sometimes and 2) the results could have been plagiarized (without proper citation).

But for those who have grown to depend on AI, Google has simplified its use within the Chrome browser. All you have to do is enable SGE (Search Generative Experience) in Chrome and you can start (or continue) your AI journey with ease.
SGE is an experiment from Google Labs and recently Google applied very powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) to Search. One model, Multitask Unified Model (MUM) is 1,000 times more powerful than BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) and is trained across 75 different languages.

With SGE, you can ask all types of complex and descriptive questions, get to the heart of a matter more quickly, get your work done faster, and ask conversational follow-ups.
Let me show you how it’s done.
How to enable SGE in Chrome
What you’ll need: To add SGE to Chrome, you’ll need the Chrome desktop browser and a valid Chrome account that is not a work or school account (it’s not yet available for those). That’s it. Let’s make it work.
The first thing you must do is open Chrome on your desktop (or laptop). Once Chrome is ready, click the profile icon in the upper right corner and click Turn on sync from the pop-up menu. You will then be prompted to type your Google account email address and then your password. Do note, if you’re already signed into your Google account from within Chrome and enabled Sync, you can skip this step.

Open a new tab in Chrome. To the left of your profile icon in the start page, you’ll see a small beaker icon. Click that icon to open the Google Labs in a new tab.
Accessing the Google Labs page is as simple as clicking the beaker. Jack Wallen/ZDNET
On the Google Labs page, you’ll see the card for SGE. In the card is an On/Off slider. Click that slider until it’s in the On position. You can then close the Google Labs tab.

In the Google search file, type a query such as tell me the story of the Great Pumpkin. In the Google search results page, you’ll see a Generate button above the standard results. Click that button to generate an AI response to your query.
Once you’ve issued your search query, click Generate to add in AI results. Jack Wallen/ZDNET
SGE will generate your results on the same page, where you can ask a follow-up question or click to generate content from the suggested follow-ups.
You can simply enjoy your results or expand on them with a follow-up question. Jack Wallen/ZDNET
You’ve just empowered your Google searches with generative AI in Chrome. Hopefully, this tool will help you learn more, faster.
