The article discusses Gmail's use of generative AI for summarizing emails, highlighting the 'smart features' that allow for automatic summarization. While these features are beneficial for many users, they can be disabled if preferred. This option is particularly notable in Europe and Japan, where smart features are turned off by default. Users can navigate app settings to turn off these features, ensuring they only receive summaries when desired, while still retaining the option to generate summaries with Gemini if needed.
Automatic generation of AI summaries is controlled by Gmail's 'smart features,' which can be disabled from the app settings, particularly in managed accounts.
Gmail's smart features are beneficial for many, but in Europe and Japan, they are defaulted to off, giving users more control over AI-assisted summaries.
