Gemini now allows you to “polish” your Gmail emails so they look spectacular

Google has announced the expansion of the features of its AI Gemini in Gmail, where it is capable of improving email writing. The company has adjusted its “Help me write” feature, introducing new options that allow for more precise refinement of email drafts. These innovations will only be available to Google Workspace or Google One AI Premium paying customers.

Previously, this tool already offered alternatives such as “Formalize,” “Elaborate” and “Shorten” to improve messages. Now, a new option called “Polish” has been added, available both on the web and on mobile devices, which allows you to transform rough notes into a formal message. In the mobile version, the function can be accessed through a shortcut in the body of the message. Additionally, when the draft has 12 words or more, the shortcut “Polish my draft” will automatically appear, offering the mentioned options.

The improvements in Gemini functionality are only available to users with specific subscriptions: Google Workspace with Gemini Business and Enterprise add-ons, Gemini Education and Education Premium, or Google One AI Premium. For these users, the feature will be enabled by default.

While these AI tools can make our lives easier when it comes to writing professional emails, we must be careful with the use we give them in personal contexts. Recently, people heavily criticized Google for a television advertisement aired during the Paris Olympics, where a father mentioned that his daughter used AI to write a letter to her favorite athlete. Critics pointed out that this type of tool can take away authenticity from a child’s sincere emotions, describing the idea as “deplorable.”

Launched in March 2023, Gemini, formerly known as “Bard,” is Google’s chatbot designed to compete with OpenAI’s ChatGPT. However, although the AI is quite useful and capable in general, it still tends to “hallucinate” and make up information, so be careful if you use it.
