ZDNET’s key takeaways
Google announced a new «Help me schedule» feature.
It enables Gemini to schedule meeting times suggested in Gmail.
The feature only works with individual contacts.
You may already be using Google’s Gemini to help you draft emails, create presentations, and write up reports on Docs. Now the AI-powered productivity tool is making its way to your calendar.
Gmail’s «Help me schedule» feature utilizes Gemini to automatically set meeting times with people whose calendars you cannot view. According to Google, this feature should eliminate the need to send multiple emails to coordinate meeting times, especially with people who don’t make their calendars visible to others. How it works
If someone sends you an email requesting a one-hour catch-up, Gemini will suggest time slots that align with your schedule.
