You can now use Ask Gemini in Drive to rummage through your Gmail

Google has integrated its Gemini AI into Google Drive, enabling users to perform conversational searches that span Gmail and Drive files. The feature, described as generally available to eligible Workspace and Google AI plans, emphasizes multi-turn interactions and grounding results in the broader workspace context. This aims to improve content discovery and productivity by providing more accurate, context-aware answers. While the expansion showcases Google's strategy to embed AI copilots across its productivity suite, details on pricing, governance, and regional rollout remain limited in the current announcements. Enterprises adopting the feature may experience streamlined information retrieval, though organizations should consider data handling policies and access controls as they evaluate deployment.
