After rumours of Microsoft’s plans to integrate ChatGPT-like AI into its Office productivity apps, Google has now announced that its Workspace apps will be getting the same treatment. The company says Workspace users will harness the power of generative AI to “create, connect, and collaborate like never before.”
In a blog post from Tuesday, Google said that it will let users create text in Gmail and Docs using the company’s self-developed generative AI technology. These two apps will soon generate drafts for topics you’d like to write about instantly. You’ll be able to elaborate upon this draft or adjust the tone to be more playful or professional. “If you’re a manager onboarding a new employee, Workspace saves you the time and effort involved in writing that first welcome email,” reads the blog post.
