You sit in front of your computer, or turn on the screen of the mobile, and you notice that one of the chats in which you discuss with your family, with your friends or with colleagues is full of messages. admit it. You act like you haven’t heard a thing, pretend to be up to date and get on with your life. We all do. But Google Chat wants to make it easier for us to keep us up to date.
Google’s chat platform, which replaced Hangouts in several of the company’s products, is finalizing the launch of a new feature backed by its artificial intelligence. A feature that will consist of analyze what was said before starting a conversation and summarize it. This way, at a glance, we will know what happened.
That’s what happened when you weren’t
Google had previously announced that several of these AI-backed features would land in Google Meet and Google Chat, but most had the 2023 date etched into their internal codes. The new summaries for Chat, however, they will arrive very soon. As soon as in a few weeks.
Remote work has allowed users to have more free time by avoiding travel, but it also means that a lot of information is now transmitted asynchronously. In-person meetings have gone virtual and discussions now take place at different times. Therefore, a tool like Google Chat summaries could be a great idea.
Google will take care of preparing these summaries for us, and they will be shown to us each time we join a chat. AI will tell us what happened in our absence
Since yesterday October 19, Google has started publishing these summaries for some users while others will receive them in their Google Chat from November 2. So if we use Google Chat, we will notice when they land on our platform. We will see if this function of telling us what happened in our absence is also transferred to other products. Like Meet, for example.
