The age of being bombarded with annoying pop-up notifications and alerts in your browser could soon be at an end thanks to a new Google Chrome update.
The company has revealed how it is making Chrome “a more helpful browser” using machine learning tools running within the software that can shut down pop-ups before the user even realizes.
The change, set to appear in Chrome 102 later this year, means that the browser will be able to examine a web page while it loads, and predict whether permission for notifications or other prompts is likely to be given.
