Gmail Smart Compose Feature

Smart Compose is an AI tool which autocompletes sentences for you using what it has learned about how people typically write. It was an experimental autocomplete feature, which is now available for testing.

As far as my experience goes, it not quite good as Google’s demo made us believe it was, but it is definitely quite useful and will also save you a few keystrokes. As mentioned it an experimental feature, and you need to enable “Experimental Access“.

Here Is How To Enable It;

  • Go to top right corner, click Settings > click Try the new Gmail (if you haven’t already).
  • Under General > Experimental Access
  • Click Enable experimental access
  • Click save changes.
  • Close the browser and sign back into Gmail.
  • There you have it!

Although Smart Compose autocompletes any cliché and write “Hi [name],” at the top of your email, but it is still quite limited (and of course only works in English). When it works, let me admit, it is smooth and suggestions are almost always on point, but it doesn’t feel intelligent.

No denying, we are still looking at an experimental feature and these tools tend to get better with time and users behavior.
