Writing on the web can be daunting, especially if you want to articulate your thoughts on public spaces or forums. Using Google Chrome's artificial intelligence (AI)-powered "Help Me Write" feature can help you write with more confidence on the web!
This AI feature will help you start writing or refine something you've already written. "Help Me Write" will understand the context of the webpage you're on to suggest relevant content. For example, as an avid gardener, if you're writing a review for garden shears, Chrome will pull out relevant details about the item from the page to support my recommendation so it's more valuable to other hobbyists.
Available for: UM faculty, staff, and students (ages 18 and above)
Access: Via Google Chrome
Get Started
To start using this feature, right-click a text box or field on any site you visit within the Google Chrome Internet browser* and select "Help me write." Type in a few words, and Chrome's AI will kickstart the writing process for you! *Important: Tip:

Note: This feature is only available in English, and on Windows, Mac, and Linux at this time.
"Help Me Write" suggestions can be inaccurate or offensive since it's still in an experimental status. Always review "Help Me Write" suggestions before you accept them. "Help Me Write" never submits text for you. When you insert a suggestion, it appears in the text box where you activated the feature. However, you must choose if you want to submit it, edit it, delete it, or simply close the webpage without taking any action.
"Help Me Write" is an experimental and creative writing aid that uses Generative AI to help you write more easily and effectively across the web.
When you use "Help Me Write," your text, the content, and URL of the page you're writing on will be sent to Google. As described in Google's Privacy Policy, this information is used to improve this feature, which includes generative model research and machine learning technologies. This information is also used to offer more contextual writing suggestions. Learn more about Google's Generative AI Prohibited Use Policy. For example, Google uses your feedback to increase the effectiveness of the safety policies and help address some of the challenges with large language models. To improve "Help Me Write," Chrome has a review process, which includes human review of data, to help us understand the types of problems that occur.
