Gmail to provide contextual ‘Smart Replies’ with AI Assistant Gemini

Google has unveiled a new AI feature called ‘contextual smart replies’ in its email app Gmail, letting users quickly respond to incoming emails.

The contextual version is aimed to send detailed responses compared to the Smart Reply feature, which dates back to 2017.

Gmail’s Smart Reply feature is getting smarter with Google’s AI Assistant Gemini that will analyse the context of an email and suggest replies that are “tailored to your conversation.”

You will see multiple reply suggestions offering distinct tone and theme appear at the bottom of the screen based on the full content of the email thread in a carousel format.
