I went to email a friend back and spotted this dropdown box with bullet points at the top of our email exchange in Gmail.
Headline: AI Overview in Gmail
Underneath, it had four bullet points summarizing what our email conversation was about.
I told my friend I’m well past the “this is creepy” stage with the internet, but wow. This is a lot process.
Of course this seems like the future. Of course this will make email easier. And of course there are tons of downsides that feel real right out of the gate.
But wow.
P. S. As I finish typing this, I’m also struck by the realization that if I see this post in 10 years (maybe even two years), this won’t even seem unusual, the way targeted ads don’t seem unusual anymore.
