AI comes to Gmail: What is ‘Help me write’ in Gmail and how it helps Notably, Google had announced the 'Help me Write' feature at the company's I/O 2023 event, which allowed users to create a complete draft of the email within seconds using just text prompts. The feature uses Google's advanced machine learning algorithms to produce better results, the company claimed. Explaining the feature in a blog post, Google wrote: "Just type in the prompt of what you want hit create, and a full draft appears...
