Google may be working on bringing AI writing and editing features for Chromebooks that could improve almost any app. The project has at least five codenames, including “Orca,” “Mako,” and “Manta.” “Orca” will appear in ChromeOS’s right-click menu when editing a body of text, opening the “Mako” UI in a “bubble” over the screen. “Mako” has three tasks, involving rewriting text, offering preset text queries, and inserting rewritten text. AI rewriting takes place on Google’s servers. Microsoft also announced a feature known as Copilot for Windows earlier this year.
