Google expands AI assistant access across Asia-Pacific, accelerating Gemini’s global market penetration beyond Western markets.
Google is bringing its Gemini AI assistant directly into Chrome across seven Asia-Pacific nations, including major tech markets like Japan, South Korea, and Singapore. The rollout covers both desktop and iOS platforms in all countries except Japan, which will receive desktop access only.
