To Compete with ChatGPT, Google Steps up its AI Efforts

Writing emails or “Googling” something is likely to become easier than ever before. Thanks to the new technological advancements that are now becoming a part of our everyday lives. Google has announced a new set of features known as generative AI, which will be operational on both smartphones as well as PCs.

So, how is the new technology going to simplify the process of writing emails? In the convention method that we are using now, we get occasional word or phrase suggestions. The updated version will unveil a new feature known as the “Help Me Write,” which will make it easy to generate a complete message on the basis of a request entered by a user. For instance, if you wish to seek a follow-up report about a project from your colleague, or you need to write an email to a company asking for a refund, all you need to do is write a description of what you want, and Gmail will take care of the rest. This new technology will derive information from the previous emails in your inbox concerning the relevant topic, and frame a message based on that. You can also alter the length of the message, its tone, etc. However, you can always make changes to the email before sending it.

The process of Googling is also about to witness changes. Generative AI will now equip Google with the ability to draw relevant data from multiple sources and then create the response that a user might be looking for. It can summarise huge amounts of information and lead to a very precise output. For instance, if you are looking forward to planning a trip, you don’t have to look for hotels, restaurants, or places to visit, separately. Instead, generative AI can curate a proper travel itinerary for you after browsing through tonnes of websites.

Apart from these applications, there are many creative ways in which you can use generative AI. For instance, you can write poems or bedtime stories for your little ones while inserting characters of your choice. You are going to be stunned by the amazing capabilities of generative AI.

If you use Google Docs, here’s some good news for you. Google will use a new feature known as Duet AI, which will help to use generative AI in Google Sheets, Slides, Google Chat, and even Google Meet. This is going to be an amazing revolution in the tech world as it will ease human tasks in a manifold time.
