Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) has been a staple tool for productivity for many businesses and individuals. With the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Gmail and Google Workspace, users can experience an even more streamlined and efficient way of managing their daily tasks. In this blog, we will explore the various AI-powered features available in Gmail and Google Workspace and how they can improve productivity, save time and boost efficiency.
Smart Compose:
With Smart Compose, Gmail suggests words and phrases as you are typing, which can help speed up composing emails. Not only that, but it can also customize the suggestions according to your writing style giving the impression you spent more time writing the email than you actually did. Smart compose is also available for Google Docs.
Smart reply:
This feature suggests several responses to an email based on the content of the email. This is especially useful for short emails such as confirmation or acknowledgment emails, providing quick and simple replies that can save time typing out emails. Alternatively, users can create their own Quick Responses to cut down on repetitive text entry.
Nudges:
Gmail's Nudges can help users prioritize their inbox with AI-tailored reminders and recommendations. Nudges work by reminding you to follow up on emails that you may have overlooked or forgotten about, or by highlighting important emails that may have been missed. This can help to boost productivity and reduce the risk of important emails being missed.
Priority Inbox:
This feature utilizes AI to identify your most important emails and categories them as such so that you can focus on the most important emails first without sifting through a cluttered inbox. Priority Inbox can also be trained to recognize which emails you consider important by marking them as such and assigning that label to other similar emails.
Spam filtering:
Google Workspace has been using AI to filter spam emails for years using machine learning algorithms. It's constantly being improved to protect users' email inboxes from unwanted messages and malware. The advanced AI algorithm trained to recognize new phishing tactics can detect some of the most complex phishing emails.
Other AI Found In Google:
Google is sprinkling little bits of AI across its different tools, like offering building blocks at the start of a new Document, brainstorm, proofread, write, and rewrite in Docs, enabling workflows for getting things done in Chat, and more. They continue to add additional tools and AI to improve the end-user experience, and we can't wait to see what they'll add next.
AI in Gmail and Google Workspace is an innovative and essential tool that has streamlined our email experience. With Smart Compose, Smart Reply, Nudges, Priority Inbox, and Spam Filtering, users can save time, boost productivity, and keep their work zone free from distractions. Considering the productivity gains, it's no surprise that the use of AI in Gmail and Google Workspace will continue to expand as we discover new ways to use this impressive technology.
