At the Cloud Next 2026 event, Google introduced Workspace Intelligence, an AI-based system developed for office applications. These new features aim to provide users with more support in tools like Drive, Sheets, and Meet.
Meet Workspace Intelligence
Workspace Intelligence is an AI system integrated into Google's office applications. It helps users automate various tasks by leveraging data sources like Gmail, Calendar, and Drive. Google emphasizes that users can control the access permissions of this system and can disable access to unwanted data. This way, users can ensure data security while also enjoying a more effective experience.
Spreadsheets and Other Innovations
One of the newly introduced features, Gemini, allows users to speed up the process of creating spreadsheets. The AI assists users in formatting and retrieving data through commands. With these innovations, filling out spreadsheets is now 9 times faster than manual methods.
