Google's Duet AI can now write your emails for you

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support

Much like its main rival, Microsoft, Google has been testing out new generative AI features for several months in its online office software, before it announced the general availability of Duet AI for Google Workspace in August.

For the cost of $30 per user per month, business customers can choose to provide workers with the capabilities of GenAI, including writing and editing work in real time.

Most notably, Duet AI built into Gmail can handle email creation for busy workers having to send out repetitive and frequent emails.

Duet AI for Gmail is here

The company announced that it would be making the feature available in Gmail at its annual Google Cloud Next conference after months of beta testing. The content-writing AI, which is available in both Gmail and Docs, turns simple prompts into a draft copy ready to be reviewed by the worker.

They can also choose to tweak existing content, such as making changes to how formal it is and how detailed it is.

In the announcement, Google envisions the Gmail-based AI tool to be equally as useful for writing to new clients and customers as it is for messaging colleagues. 

To benefit from the new features, customers will need to purchase the Duet AI for Google Workspace Enterprise add-on, which has already been rolled out and is available on compatible accounts. Many features, including the text generator, are set for release on both desktop and mobile platforms.

Also hitting general availability at the same time is Duet AI in Docs, which also promises to generate and tweak content, and a new Docs-only AI-powered proofreader which looks to address spelling, grammar, conciseness, the active voice, wording, and sentence splits, all in an effort to take on giants like Grammarly.

Precisely how much AI assistance workers can ultimately expect, and whether there could be tiers to the current $30 subscription, remains unclear. However, Google has hinted at plenty more features coming soon.

The Samsung Galaxy Ring could go into production as soon as next month

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support With the dust beginning to settle from the huge Samsung Unpacked 2023 event, we can turn our attention towards what Samsung might have planned next: and a smart ring seems to be in the company's near future. As per a report from South Korean outlet The Elec (via SamMobile ), mass production on a Samsung Galaxy Ring could begin as early as August, with a decision imminent on the schedule for getting the wearable manufactured and out to consumers. A full launch is slated for some point during 2024 though, rather than 2023. The nature of the device means that it'll need to clear several regulatory hurdles before it can go on sale and start tracking various vital statistics. An early 2024 launch would put the Galaxy Ring on a similar schedule to the Samsung Galaxy S24 – and it would therefore make sense to launch both gadgets at the same time, perhaps in January or February if Samsung follows its 2023 routine. The story so far Rumors ar...

The Apple Watch ban is lifted, on appeal – but the reprieve might only be temporary

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The Apple Watch ban story has developed quickly over the last week and a bit, and there's now a new twist: the US Court of Appeals is putting a pause on the US sales and import ban while it reviews the case, which means the Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 can go back on sale for the time being. "We are thrilled to return the full Apple Watch lineup to customers in time for the new year," an Apple spokesperson told TechRadar. "We are pleased the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has stayed the exclusion order while it considers our request to stay the order pending our full appeal." The watches in question are now once again available from "select" Apple Stores, and will also be going on sale from the Apple website from 12pm PT / 3pm ET on Thursday, December 28 (that's 8pm in the UK, and early on December 29 in Australia). All Apple Stores should have stock by the weekend. As for how long t...

These mobile games are just trying to steal your crypto hoard, FBI warns

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The FBI has warned consumers about a newly-detected, fake "play-to-earn" mobile and online game that tricks victims into depositing cryptocurrency, only to later steal it.  In a public service announcement , the FBI said the elaborate scheme sees scammers first contact the potential victim and try to build a relationship with them.  After a little back-and-forth, the scammers would invite the victim to play an online or mobile game, in which players purportedly earn cryptocurrency rewards in exchange for some activity, “such as growing ‘crops’ on an animated farm” the FBI said.  Depositing cryptos But getting into the “game” isn’t free - the victims must first create a cryptocurrency wallet and deposit some money, which is where the real scam begins. The fraudsters would later also tell the victims that the more funds they deposit, the higher the gains will be. However, as soon as the victim stops depositing additional funds, the...
