Google speeds up Chrome updates to every two weeks to combat fast AI-driven hacking threats.

Google has shortened its Chrome browser update cycle from four weeks to two weeks, starting with Chrome 153. This change aims to deliver security patches and feature updates faster to users, helping to reduce the risk of 'N-day' attacks where hackers exploit publicly known bugs before fixes reach users. The accelerated schedule also aligns with moves by other browsers like Microsoft and Mozilla to enhance security amid rising AI-driven cyber threats. Google plans to continue this faster update pace, including piloting two security releases per week to stay ahead of attackers.
