Would you trust AI to change your browser passwords automatically? Google thinks you will.

Downloading Google Chrome in Microsoft Edge .

Google is working on a feature for its Chrome browser that will change your compromised passwords automatically. "Automated Password Change" is now in testing within the Canary version of Chrome and could make its way to everyone if testing goes well. If it makes its way to general availability, the feature could help secure accounts while reducing how many passwords you need to come up with and memorize.

In this instance, automatically refers to AI generating the password and changing your password if you'd like. You'll be prompted about the proposed change when you sign it, so it's not as if Chrome will change your passwords in the background without asking.
