Google could soon add a feature that makes it super easy to learn about a file.
Rumors and reports online suggest that the tech giant could be working on a feature that'll let you attach a file then search within it, in order to then analyze the document.
As spotted by Android Authority, this new, rumored tool from Google would let a user upload a file in the search bar with the familiar paperclip icon, then parse through that document. Users would be prompted to "ask anything about the file" via the regular Google search bar.
In effect, you could take any local file and comb through it via Google search, receiving answers with the help of AI. Of course you'd have to trust Google to keep your documents private and that its AI tools would spit out accurate responses.
The tool was spotted and posted on X and by Khushal Bherwani, an SEO analyst who frequently posts about this sort of thing of the social media site.

To be clear, at the moment this is just a rumor and reports online. I was not able to access the tool, so perhaps this is just a test feature Google may never release to the public at large. But it could prove interesting should it ever become available to everyone.
