View your most relevant Google Drive folders and files on a single page
Last year, Google introduced a new homepage view in Drive that included personalized file and folder suggestions with machine learning algorithms to help you get started quickly. Now, you will see a combined, unified view for file and folder suggestions on the Drive homepage that leverages machine learning to help you find and organize your most relevant content faster and intuitively. More specifically, you’ll notice: combined file and folder suggestions, seamless navigation and organization, and enhanced search filters.

5 tips on getting started with Gems, your custom AI experts
Google recently introduced Gems, a tool that lets you create custom experts for any task within Gemini. The idea behind Gems is to give you an AI chat agent that’s designed to help you exactly how you want it to. For example, you can create a Gem to act as a positive, upbeat running coach who’s made a training plan just for you. Basically, you can give your Gem unique context and revisit this exact AI expert whenever you need it. Gems has launched to Gemini Advanced, Business and Enterprise users everywhere.
Gemini now shows related content links in its responses
You can now access additional information on topics directly in Gemini’s responses to your prompts. Specifically, you’ll see links to related content in responses to fact-seeking prompts. If you have a Gemini for Workspace license and Workspace extensions in Gemini are enabled, Gemini will also include inline links to relevant emails referenced in responses where the Gmail extension is used. Including this information offers another easy way to dig deeper into Gemini’s responses. And you can use Gemini’s double-check feature to verify responses by using Google Search to highlight which statements are corroborated or contradicted on the web.
