TL;DR

• Chrome Canary is testing new “Nano Banana” and “Deep Search” buttons that plug AI prompts directly into the search box.
• Nano Banana appears to cue image generation, while Deep Search suggests Gemini-powered research, with both currently requiring Chrome flags to enable.
• The features are unstable and do little right now, but they signal Google’s push to make Chrome more AI-driven.

Google Chrome is testing two bold new buttons under its search box: Nano Banana and Deep Search. First spotted by Windows Report, the update appears in the Chrome Canary test build and looks like another step toward making Chrome a more AI-forward browser. These new chips sit just below the “Ask Google” field on a new tab page, alongside the existing AI Mode button that was added earlier this year.
