Google to Integrate AI Technology into Office Applications for Enhanced User Experience and Productivity
Google has announced that it is going to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technology into its office applications, such as Gmail emails and Google Docs documents. According to the reports, Google is currently testing AI products by allowing access to some Google Workspace users. Google Workspace is a set of Google’s office components, including Gmail and Google Docs.
This announcement from Google is a significant milestone in the history of AI, as it will significantly change the way we work with our office documents. The integration of AI technology in Google Workspace will help users to write their documents more efficiently and accurately, as it will provide them with suggestions and drafts.
One of the key features of Google Workspace is its ability to generate drafts for users based on the topic they want to write about. For example, a busy HR professional can create custom job descriptions or a parent drafting invitations for their kid’s pirate-themed birthday party, and Google Workspace will save them time and effort by generating a draft for them in no time.
Race Among Tech Giants
The rise of AI technology has been one of the hottest topics in the technology world this year. The San Francisco start-up OpenAI launched the ChatGPT chatbot last year, and its rapid popularity has sparked a race among major tech companies to bring similar capabilities into their products. ChatGPT allows users to ask questions or requests and receive sophisticated and creative answers.
Google said that when users try the AI version of Gmail email service, they can enter “draft an email to send to the team” in the text box of the email, and then Gmail will create a “three-paragraph” thank you letter that users can edit and add content to and can also request a rewrite.
Google has more than 3 billion Google Workspace users, and its main competitor is Microsoft’s Office 365. Microsoft, a major investor in OpenAI, will discuss the integration of AI and office software on LinkedIn this Thursday.
The new features will be available to some individual consumers and some business and educational users, according to a Google spokesman. However, Google didn’t say when the new features would be widely available or if they would cost extra.
Google also plans to introduce more artificial intelligence functions into Google Workspace later this year, including generating formulas in worksheets, automatically generating images in slideshows, and taking notes in Google Meet.
In conclusion, the integration of AI technology in Google Workspace will significantly enhance the user experience and productivity of Google Workspace users. It will provide them with suggestions and drafts, which will help them to write their documents more efficiently and accurately.
