- Google Deepmind builds an AI -E -Mail -Assistant
- AI automatically responds to messages in a user’s own voice and style
- The assistant sorts and organizes inboxes to help reduce the time spent on admin assignments
There are few modern experiences that are more demoralizing than waking up, picking up your phone to turn off your alarm and discover a cushion of E emails that bury your inbox in messages. Forget to write back, just sort through them all and decide what needs answers and how fast you need to answer can eat a whole day. Google Deepmind CEO Demis Hassabis believes that AI has to deal with all the organization and reaction, and he and his team have a plan to integrate a virtual robot secretary into your inbox so you never have to go through through irrelevant sales sites and unnecessary LinkedIn messages again.
E -mail is the most important magic treasure with a dark curse attached. Miraculous instant communication worldwide is burdened with spam, late at night demands of immediate action from a boss and the dreaded unintended response-all button. Hassabis believes that AI can restore the good parts of the email by dealing with all the “worldly duties” and recommend answers instead of leaving you full of despair over your triple digit unread count.
Hassabis told the audience at the recent SXSW London event that he would gladly pay a lot of money to end the current tyranny in the inbox. And not in a distant future. Deepmind is working to make email inboxes that are self-governing, able to sort through incoming messages, decide which ones matter, and preparation responses that sound like you. So the next annoying E -mail doesn’t just find you well, it doesn’t find you at all until AI works a response to your approval.
From a marketing perspective it is a brilliant approach. Lots of people rightly worried about some of the implications of AI may have a soft place for the technology if it can even clean up a few hours a week for actual productive work (or even see your family).

Hassabis described his vision of a “universal AI assistant” that can be proactive and smart enough to act on your behalf. Instead of regularly giving the AI orders and explaining your priorities, AI will learn from observing how to handle a variety of emails and maybe a one-time wide description of your approach to different kinds of messages. It will not only know how to answer E emails but also as you ignore on purpose and which you are just stumped to figure out how to answer.
An AI assistant of this caliber, “gives you more time and maybe protects your attention from other algorithms trying to get your attention,” Hassabis said. “I think we can actually use AI in service for the individual.” “
It’s the long -term big picture. At the moment, Hassabis said we can look forward to AI tools that know when to say, “Thank you for the follow-up. I’ll be looking back to you soon.” And when should you immediately click Delete. Everyone will appreciate an AI that causes us to inbox zero without losing our minds.
