I asked GPT-4o a simple question,
"How to reduce memory usage in Google Chrome"
This was it's tantalizing response:
Reducing memory usage in Google Chrome can help improve your computer’s performance, especially if you often have multiple tabs open. Here are some effective ways to reduce Chrome's memory usage:
1. Close Unnecessary Tabs
Each open tab consumes memory. Close any tabs you don’t need to reduce Chrome’s memory usage.
2. Use Chrome’s Task Manager
Chrome has a built-in Task Manager that allows you to see which tabs and extensions are using the most memory.
To access it, click on the three dots in the upper-right corner, go to More tools > Task Manager. End tasks for tabs or extensions that are consuming too much memory.
3. Disable Unnecessary Extensions
Extensions can consume a significant amount of memory. Disable or remove any extensions that you don't regularly use.
To manage extensions, go to chrome://extensions/ in your address bar and toggle off or remove unnecessary extensions.
4. Use the “Great Suspender” Extension
This extension automatically suspends inactive tabs, freeing up memory. The tabs can be reloaded when you need them.
Note: Make sure to use a trusted version, as some versions of this extension have had security issues in the past.
5. Enable Hardware Acceleration
This allows Chrome to offload some tasks to your GPU, potentially reducing memory usage.
Go to chrome://settings/, scroll down and click Advanced, then under System, toggle on Use hardware acceleration when available.
6. Use Chrome’s Built-In Memory Saver
Chrome has a built-in feature that automatically reduces memory usage by suspending background tabs.
Go to chrome://settings/performance and enable Memory Saver.
7. Clear Browsing Data
Over time, Chrome accumulates a lot of data (cookies, cached images, etc.) that can affect performance.
Go to chrome://settings/clearBrowserData, choose Cached images and files and Cookies and other site data, and clear the data.
8. Update Chrome
Ensure Chrome is up to date, as newer versions often come with performance improvements and memory optimizations.
Go to chrome://settings/help to check for updates.
9. Use a Lightweight Theme
Avoid using heavy, graphic-intensive themes. Stick to the default theme or choose a lightweight one to reduce memory consumption.
10. Restart Chrome Regularly
Restarting Chrome can free up memory by clearing cached data and restarting processes. Closing and reopening Chrome occasionally can help reduce memory usage.

I can understand why Google is investing into AI technology.
