Gemini is making Gmail’s smart replies smarter

Google is rolling out a Gemini-based update to Gmail for Android and iOS that will tailor smart replies more specifically to email. Google first announced in May that its new contextual Smart Replies will “provide more detailed responses to fully capture the intent of your message” by considering the entire content of the email thread.

Users can hover over any of the suggested contextual smart replies to preview the text and select the option that best suits their needs or writing style. Suggested replies can be edited or sent immediately. The idea is that this will both save time (especially if you're often buried in your Gmail inbox) and improve the variety of automatic replies available, beyond a simple “Yes, I'm working on it” or “Don't worry, thanks.” for” go out. Attention! – even adding an initial greeting and farewell message.

If users are comfortable with the automated options, they may not need to type at all when replying to an email.

The new contextual Smart Replies are now rolling out to Gemini Business, Enterprise, Education, Education Premium, and Google One AI Premium subscribers. The feature is currently only available in English and builds on the original Smart Replies that were added to Gmail in 2017.
