New Year, new Gmail. Google announced on Thursday that it is further integrating Gemini 3 into its email service and its more than 3 billion users.
The expanded features, which include AI summarization and writing tools, come as Google responds to users wanting more personalized AI experiences.
“We recently surveyed our users and found that 85% of them think that AI in Gmail is most helpful when it leverages their content to generate tailored responses,” Gmail’s Head of Product, VP Blake Barnes, told reporters in a conference call on Wednesday. “They don’t want a generic assistant.” A December poll by Google Workspace and The Harris Poll found that 92% of knowledge workers ages 22-39 want AI with personalization.
As part of the rollout, an AI Overview tool similar to the one found on Google Search will summarize email threads. Paid users will be able to ask their inboxes and receive an AI Overview.
