oogle Workspace's tools are already productivity cornerstones for nearly 3 billion users, and new Gemini features aim to give users an AI-shaped boost.

On Tuesday, Google updated Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drive with deeper Gemini integrations to help users create content across apps more easily. For instance, the new Help Me Create feature in Google Docs analyzes content across Drive, Gmail, Chat, and the web to generate fully formatted first drafts.

Other new Google Docs features include a co-editor, which can now refine whole sections of your document, including matching the document’s writing style for consistency in tone and voice. Gemini can now also help users match the style and structure of reference documents, making it easier to repurpose old documents.

While the Doc updates will likely be what impacts the largest number of Google Workspace users, the other upgrades help with everyday tedious tasks such as creating spreadsheets or presentations, or sifting through all your content:

• Google Sheets: Gemini can now help build entire spreadsheets from a prompt as well as data from Gmail, Chat, and Drive, fill in data from simple descriptions (instead of complex formulas), and solve “advanced optimization problems.”
• Google Slides: Gemini can create slides that are on theme and pull from your files, email, and the web, and can also edit slides.
• Google Drive: Users can now view AI Overviews when they search their Drive using conversational prompts, and have multi-turn conversations with Drive based on the content of documents, emails, calendar, and the web.

All of these features are rolling out to Google AI Pro & Ultra subscribers. The Google Docs and Slides features are rolling out to Gemini Alpha business customers globally, whose default language is US-English only, while the Drive features are coming to Gemini Alpha business customers in the US, starting with US-English only.
