As spotted by researcher Leopeva64, Google appears to be testing a new scam detection feature in Chrome. Of course, it's 2024, so that means the feature uses AI. The feature's name, "Client Side Detection Brand and Intent for Scam Detection," doesn't alert you to that fact, but you see it in the description: "Enables on devices LLM output on pages to inquire for brand and intent of the page." LLM stands for large language model, which powers many of the AI-generated programs and services you use, and it appears the feature uses that AI model to look out for sites that appear to be scammy.
This option is live in the latest version of Chrome Canary, the version of Chrome that Google uses to test new flags (experimental features) on. It's not clear if it works yet, but you can enable it. First, launch Chrome Canary, then head to chrome://flags. From here, search for "client-side-detection-brand-and-page-intent" (without the quotes, of course), then click the "Default" drop-down menu and choose "Enabled." Click "Relaunch," and you're set.

Unlike Google's more cryptic description, this one quite literally says "Allow Microsoft to use AI to detect potential tech scams."
