Gmail's upgraded search results help you find the emails you want, faster.

Gmail is rolling out a smarter search feature powered by AI to show you the most relevant results in your inbox, faster. Instead of just showing emails in chronological order based on keywords, Gmail search results now factor in elements like recency, most-clicked emails and frequent contacts. With this update, the emails you’re looking for are far more likely to be at the top of your search results — saving you valuable time and helping you find important information more easily.

Adding new capabilities to Google Vids’ ‘Help me create’

When constructing a Vid, you can easily get started by using a set of generative AI capabilities. Gemini’s ‘Help me create’ can generate a fully editable first draft of your video using a prompt and content from your Google Drive. After choosing a style, Gemini pieces together your vid with suggested scenes, including recommended stock media, text, scripts per scene, and even a background music track. Google is introducing updates this feature. Now, Vids will automatically generate AI voiceovers for each scene of your Vid from the AI suggested scripts.

New ways to collaborate and get creative with Gemini

Gemini can already help you brainstorm ideas, do deep research and generate content for whatever project you’re working on. And starting now, Gemini can offer even more help, whether it’s editing a document with you in real time or taking your idea and coding a real prototype. Canvas is a new interactive space within Gemini designed to make creating, refining and sharing your work easy.
