Google integrates its Gemini AI inside Gmail to help you draft and summarise emails
Google is rolling out a new Gemini AI sidebar in Gmail that can help you compose emails and summarize email threads. The company is also adding Gemini sidebars for Files, Sheets, Slides and Drive. The launch of the new features comes shortly after Google announced them at its I/O developer conference last month, which focused heavily on the tech giant's new AI offerings.
With the new integration, you can use Gemini in Gmail to get help drafting an email or get suggested responses to an email. Additionally, you can ask questions and find specific information from emails in your inbox or Google Drive files.
Google notes that while Gemini in Gmail will provide prompts to help you start your query, you can also ask your own questions. For example, you might ask a Gemini, "What was my agency's order number?" Or you can ask, "How much did the company spend on the last marketing campaign."
These features are only available to Google Workspace customers with a Gemini Business or Enterprise add-on, a Gemini Education or Education Premium add-on, or a Google One AI Premium subscription.Documents, a Gemini sidebar, can help you write and refine content, gather information, and help brainstorm ideas. You can also build content based on other files. In Slides, Gemini can help you generate new slides and custom images, as well as put together presentations. The Gemini dashboard can also help you track and organize data in Spreadsheets. In addition, you can create tables, generate formulas, and get help with certain tasks. In the driver, Gemini panels can summarize the document and obtain the project's quick facts.
Like the Gemini panel in Gmail, you need to be a paid Gemini user to access the features of DOC, slides, sheets and drivers. Google is the latest technology giant that can add this feature to its popular daily applications and services. Earlier this year, Meta brought her Ai Chatrobot to Instagram and WhatsApp. The recent trend of integrating artificial intelligence into everyday products may not be popular with everyone. Despite all the excitement about Apple's upcoming AI features, Meta was rebuffed by adding its own AI chatbot to search on Instagram. So far, users who aren't interested in generative AI tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT have largely been able to avoid them. But as tech giants continue to add AI to their everyday apps and services, generative AI will be inevitable.
