SMART COMPOSE: A GMAIL FEATURE THAT ANTICIPATES THE WORDS OF YOUR EMAIL

Here is a new feature that comes on Gmail that should have great utility in the professional world. Indeed, this one anticipates the terms that you will write by favoring the autocomplete.

---New feature on Gmail to write faster---

In the professional world, it is common to send standard mails, and it is then tedious to have to rewrite them in their entirety. The new feature, called Smart Compose and which will be proposed in Gmail, should allow to go faster in writing emails. This one mobilizes the autocomplete and anticipates your written potentials, by proposing groups of words, from what you could write in your previous mails. Thus, these proposals are based on three variables: the recipient of the email, the context and your habits. That's what makes this feature so useful. In this way, you write your mails faster and avoid repetitions. So, if you are used to having lunch with one of your colleagues on Thursday at noon, you can start writing: "Hello, are you available on Thursday," and Smart Compose to offer you to complete the following: " to have lunch in town? ".

---Smart Compose: a device that solicits artificial intelligence---

Not surprisingly, this feature uses artificial intelligence. It goes further than what mobile keyboards offer, since it can automatically complete large pieces of sentences. It will then be up to you to validate this proposal. The option should therefore find its audience, especially among those who send many emails a day, and who probably tend to use the same formulations. It remains to be seen whether the French version will be as optimal as the English version, particularly accomplished. Presented at the Google I / O 2018 conference, Smart Compose should be deployed to the general public in the coming weeks on Gmail. To make this new application work, it will be necessary to go within the parameter "experimental access" and activate it.
