Chat with Your Inbox
Gmail users on Android can now converse with Google’s AI assistant, Gemini, about their emails directly in the app.
The new feature, Gmail Q&A, allows users to ask Gemini to summarize emails or search for specific details within their inbox.
AI Takes Center Stage
Google is shifting its focus from traditional search to AI-powered chat.
The Gemini button will appear next to the search bar, encouraging users to interact with the AI chatbot for information retrieval. However, users should remain cautious of potential AI hallucinations.
Premium Perks Only
Currently available to paying Gemini or Google One AI Premium subscribers, Gmail Q&A is part of Google’s strategy to monetize its AI offerings.
The company plans to expand the feature’s capabilities to include access to Google Drive files in the future.
