Google Chrome is quietly downloading a roughly 4 GB AI model to many users’ computers without clear upfront consent. The file, called weights.bin, is part of Google’s Gemini Nano on-device language model and lands in the browser’s user data folder under OptGuideOnDeviceModel. It powers built-in AI tools such as “Help me write,” smarter tab suggestions, on-device scam detection, and page summarization. The download triggers automatically for devices meeting minimum hardware requirements, and Chrome often replaces the files if deleted. While the model processes data locally, installation happens in the background with minimal notification. The scale is noteworthy. Hundreds of millions or billions of installations add up to thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions globally from data transfer, even though each is a one-time event. To prevent or remove it, go to chrome://flags, disable the entries for the optimization guide on-device model and Prompt API, restart the browser, and manually delete the folder.

eu vou ressuscitar o bar do pinto prometo a voces

O da minha faculdade ia falir na pandemia aí um aluno COMPROU o bar e virou sócio só pra não fechar

🚨 Marina Sena e Juliano Floss irão se CASAR!

queria estar falando que gastei horrores no feriado e que quando abri a fatura achei que clonaram meu cartao mas DE FATO clonaram meu cartao
