Google Workspace's Gmail now auto-generates AI-powered summaries for lengthy email threads, appearing atop the emails on mobile devices. Previously, users manually activated these features. Still available for manual requests, the AI summaries will update with new replies. While currently for mobile and English-language emails only, the feature might later extend to desktop users. Users can opt-out by deactivating the ‘Smart features’ in settings.

This shift limits user exploration, risking misinformation due to AI's inaccuracies. Despite declining web traffic, Google's profits continue to rise.

While handy, AI summaries have had reliability issues, as seen with Apple’s similar feature. Users can still manually click to summarize emails, and the feature is currently available only for English emails.

AI-generated books are flooding Amazon, with authors like Melanie Mitchell and Fei-Fei Li falling victim to knock-offs of their own works. These AI-generated imitations often appear as shorter, poorly-written versions of the originals and add little value for readers. Deepfake-detection software confirmed that these books are highly likely AI-generated. Although Amazon took down some of these imitations upon being notified, the issue persists. The legality of these summaries remains uncertain, with experts divided on whether they constitute fair use or plagiarism. The publishing industry is struggling to address this problem, and Amazon has yet to implement proactive measures.
