Gmail prepares a revolutionary AI-based feature for Android

There is not a week in which we do not talk about a new function based on artificial intelligence for some prominent platform, be it a social network, streaming, video games or any other topic. And this week we learn about one from Gmail that certainly seems revolutionary to us, and that could completely change our relationship with the email application. And now it is being seen, which means that soon we will be able to enjoy it.

Summaries created by AI

Without a doubt, it will be one of the most popular functions of Gmail, since it is a new function that will be able to create a summary of a certain email, so that we do not have to read it in its entirety, but instead Generative AI will be able to create an extract that allows us to understand it in less time.

It will also be a function capable of summarizing a chain of emails, so that, if we are in a conversation with more people, instead of having to read new emails, we will only have to ask Gmail to generate that summary for us , Gemini will be in charge of reading all those emails and generating the summary for us. And now this function is finally being seen in the Gmail application.

When will it be available?

Well there is the news, because one of the most active leakers in the Android environment, Assemble Debug, has revealed that this function has already appeared in the Gmail app for Google’s mobile operating system. Specifically, you can see the new button how it appears between the subject of the email and the sender address of this email. There you can see a button that says something like Summarize this email.

This function is powered, as it could not be otherwise, by Gemini, the new generation of Google AI, which will soon replace the Google Assistant and its entire ecosystem. Now, the function has so far been discovered within the application code, so it is not a feature that we can use even if we had a beta installed, no, at the moment it is something still in development, but it It is evident that it is closer than ever.

In the shared image where you can see the Create email summaries button, we can read a text from Google that details how Gemini will be able to create this type of email summaries or summaries. It will be the new Gemini AI that will use its language models to be able to understand and extract the necessary text so that we are able to know the content of a conversation or an email thanks to the synthesis carried out by that AI. A functionality that above all seeks to save us time, and not replace our work, as it might seem. Therefore, it will still take some time for this function to reach all of us.
