Google is incorporating a variety of AI features into its Chromebook Plus line of devices, which are designed to enhance productivity.
These features include NotebookLM, a tool that explains complex text, a screen-selection tool for search and text capture, and more.
The new screen-selection tool functions in a manner identical to the “Circle to search” feature in Chrome on smartphones and Google Lens. Simply select the item on your screen by long-pressing the launcher button or using the screenshot tool, and Google will immediately conduct a search. The tool also enables you to rapidly add an event to the calendar by selecting text.
Google introduced a new “quick insert” key to select Chromebook Plus models last year, which enables users to activate shortcuts. With this key, users can now access AI-powered writing tools and Google’s AI image-generation features.
In the interim, the newly introduced “Simplify” function enables you to utilize AI to summarize, simplify, or elucidate any text that you have chosen.

Google is also providing a one-year subscription to the Google AI Pro plan to all new Chromebook Plus users. This plan includes access to the Gemini app, video editing tool Flow, image-to-video creation tool Whisk, Gemini in Gmail, Docs, and Chrome, and 2TB of storage. Otherwise, the AI Pro plan incurs an annual expense of $240.
Google is introducing two exclusive AI features for Lenovo’s new Chromebook Plus 14 in addition to these features: The first employs artificial intelligence to suggest tab and document organization, while the second enables users to modify images using the Gallery app to remove backgrounds or create stickers.
