Gmail Gives Users AI-Powered Grammar And Spelling Checks

Grammarly and other similar services are attempting improving the quality of users’ emails, and so is Google. It is now bringing Gmail up-to-date grammar suggestions and spelling check capabilities.

According to Google, soon users of G suite will notice machine-learning-powered inline suggestions that appear when they type. Moreover, Gmail will autocorrect some common spelling mistakes, but users do not need to take extra steps or click anything. It will detect misspellings as well as errors regarding verb tense.

From the perspective of a composer, the main advantage is that users will not need to click “check to spell” in the compose window by hand when they want Gmail to analyze their email. Instead of that, there will be red lines appearing under misspellings and the blue ones under grammatical errors.

Google said in the press release of G suite that:

During the following weeks, these options will all be available by default then rolling out to users of G Suite. However, users can disable Gmail’s assistance with grammar or spelling checks in settings if they do not want to use them. For example, they can turn off the autocorrecting feature as they type and keep grammar suggestions.

G-suite can be considered Google’s modest improvement with the inbuilt assistant, making it now a bit smarter and easier to use. This AI-driven grammar checker has appeared in Google Docs; now it is making its way to Gmail. The company says machine learning and some of the extended suggestions can “reflect human cognitive biases.”
