Gmail’s Smart Compose will write emails for you

At its annual developer conference, Google announced a new feature coming to Gmail called Smart Compose.

An extension of Gmail’s Smart Reply feature, Smart Compose will suggest complete sentences within the body of an email as you are writing. It will operate in the background, and if you see a phrase pop up that you like, just hit tab to select it, and the text will auto-populate. Not only will this help save time when writing emails, Google says it will help reduce the chance of you sending off something with a grammar or spelling error (if that’s a problem for you).

Smart Compose also recognizes context. For example, if it’s Friday, it might suggest closing out your message with “Have a great weekend!”

Google says the Smart Compose feature will start to appear for consumers over the next few weeks and will be integrated for G Suite customers within the next few months. Make sure you’ve enabled the new Gmail in order to use it when it becomes available.
