Google Chrome downloads 4 GB AI model without permission

The Google Chrome browser has started downloading the 4 GB Gemini Nano AI model to users' devices without their consent. This process occurs without any warning or opt-out option. This is reported by Thatprivacyguy.com reports .

Experts note that even if a user deletes this model, the browser automatically re-downloads it. It is only possible to stop this process using enterprise management tools.

Researchers analyzed this situation not only from a legal but also from an environmental perspective. Downloading and storing such data on billions of devices could significantly increase global energy consumption and negatively impact the climate.
