Google's Magic Pointer feature, originally announced for its new Googlebook laptops, is already rolling out to Chrome on Windows and Mac devices. The AI-powered tool transforms the cursor into a contextual assistant that understands on-screen content and suggests relevant actions.

Magic Pointer activates with a simple cursor wiggle. When pointing at content like emails or images, it can suggest creating calendar events or combining images. Users can now point to webpage elements and ask Gemini to perform tasks like comparing products or visualizing items in their space.

Google hasn't specified rollout regions yet, though English-speaking users in the U.S. are likely first. This cross-platform availability potentially diminishes the unique selling point of Googlebook laptops, blurring the line between device-specific software and universal browser-based AI tools.
