Hi everyone!
"Gmail is still Gmail."
Many AI features like auto-complete or summary have been there for a while, but the addition of the new "AI Inbox" sidebar makes it feel completely different this time.
It seems Google is finally leveraging the raw power of Gemini 3 to reconstruct a native AI mail experience from the ground up.
AI Overviews turns the search bar into a reasoning engine, you don't hunt for keywords anymore, just ask complex questions and get synthesized answers. And the AI Inbox shifts the paradigm from "managing" email to receiving a "briefing". It acts like a proactive assistant that understands context and urgency, serving up what actually matters.
I actually hesitated a bit to hunt this. There are many teams building AI email agents on PH, and they are doing great work. But when the platform owner makes a move this substantial, the impact on the world is just too big to ignore.
The giant has moved. It just means we need to move faster and innovate even more.

Like this one, but a slighlty concerned about privacy when it comes to content within emails. Anyway, one thing I also love about Gemini is that it started summing up calls and sending overviews.
The features look powerful, but if the AI misclassifies an urgent email, the consequences are far more serious than pushing a non-urgent one up. I’m curious whether Google has built any safeguards or fallback mechanisms for that.
Are there safeguards if the AI misclassifies something critical?
Very cool! Would love to try it! We built something similar at Jido for small business but we go beyond summaries and can actually do action since we have a computer use agent that can interact with any UI to automate any workflow.
Very happy that finally I can search my mail based on context and not specific word, thanks gmail being gmail :)
Clean idea. Search is something everyone uses, but few rethink properly.
Interested to see how this improves relevance and discovery in practice.
Wow, Googles AI Inbox sounds like a game changer for managing email overload! Im curious how it handles newsletters that I actually want to read – does it learn my preferences over time?
