Drafting emails in Gmail is about to get a lot easier

If you are stuck for words when writing an e-mail, help is at hand through a new Gmail feature that will understand the context of an e-mail and suggest phrases for users.

Powered by artificial intelligence, this new feature will help Gmail users to draft emails with ease.

Google explains that this feature works in the background. One can continue to write an email like they normally would and Smart Compose will offer suggestions as one types. If you wish to use the suggestions, you can click on the ‘tab’ button to use it.

Smart Compose will roll out to users in the next few weeks. If you want to try it out for yourself, make sure to enable “experimental access” in your Settings menu.

For now, the feature will only work on desktop and for English-language users.
