The AI feature lets users quickly respond to incoming emails. Compared to the Smart Reply feature, which dates back to 2017, the contextual version is meant to send detailed responses. The AI tool can analyse the context of an email and suggest replies that are “tailored to your conversation.” It is to be noted that the Gemini-powered feature is only available to Google Workspace users.After initiating an email reply, users will see multiple reply suggestions appear at the bottom of the screen based on the full content of the email thread in a carousel format. Each suggestion features a distinct tone and theme. Users can preview the first few words of the title and the content by long-pressing each response. By tapping on a response, the AI tool will generate a full reply to the email, including a greeting and closing, multiple long paragraphs and all the information the sender is seeking. Users can also make further edits and add more information before sending.“We’re excited to announce a new Gemini feature in Gmail, contextual Smart Replies, that will offer more detailed responses to fully capture the intent of your message,” reads the Google Workspace Updates post.It is worth noting that the “Smart features and personalisation” option must be enabled in Gmail to access this feature.The contextual Smart Replies feature is currently being rolled out to Google Workspace users.
