Write With ChatGPT – Without Ever Leaving the Gmail Compose Box

ChatGPT’s maker just rolled-out an incredibly new and powerful feature for email, which enables you to use the AI to write and edit an email directly inside the Gmail compose box.

Already available for Mac users, the new feature – part of the new ChatGPT-powered browser ‘Atlas’ – is promised for Windows users in a few weeks.

A boon for people who spend considerable time cranking out emails each day, the new capability eliminates the need to jump back-and-forth between ChatGPT and Gmail when composing an email with the AI.

Instead, users can simply click open a Gmail compose box to start an email, then click on a tiny ChatGPT logo that appears in the upper left-hand corner to create an email using ChatGPT.

Essentially: No more opening a Gmail compose box on one tab, then logging into ChatGPT and opening a second tab to access ChatGPT — and then cutting-and-pasting text back-and-forth from one tab to the other to come up with an email you want to send

Instead, everything is done for you inline in a single, Gmail compose box.

Even better: You can also use the new feature to highlight text you’ve already created in a Gmail compose box — then edit that text with ChatGPT and then send when you’re satisfied with the results.

Plus, ChatGPT’s Atlas ups-the-ante even further by enabling you to use the same write-in-the-app capability in Google Docs.

And it works the same way: Simply click on a tiny ChatGPT logo that appears when you hover in the top left-hand corner of a Google Doc, enter in a prompt you want the AI to use to write text for you, click enter and ChatGPT writes exactly what you’re looking for – without you ever being forced to go outside the Google Doc for help.

In a phrase: Once word of this stellar new convenience spreads across the Web, it seems certain that there will be a stampede of people embracing the idea of using ChatGPT without ever needing to leave Gmail or Google Docs.

That should especially be the case given that the new feature is currently available on the Mac to all tier levels of ChatGPT, including the ChatGPT free level – with availability to Windows users promised soon.

Here’s how the new auto-writing feature works, step by step:

2. Hover over the blinking cursor in the upper left-hand corner in the compose box until a tiny ChatGPT logo appears

6. A drop-down window appears, showcasing the text that ChatGPT just wrote for you
7. Click Insert to accept the text that ChatGPT wrote from you into your Gmail
8. Click ‘Send’ to send your email

Groundbreaking in its own right, the new write-in-the-app capability is one of a flurry of features that come with the new ChatGPT-powered browser Atlas, released a few days ago.

With the release of Atlas, ChatGPT’s maker OpenAI is hoping to capitalize on the 800 million visits made each week to the ChatGPT Web site.

Those visitors represent a motivated, ChatGPT-inspired audience. And OpenAI is hoping that by making its own AI-powered browser available to those people, they’ll abandon Google Chrome and start using Atlas to surf the Web.

Like Perplexity Comet – another new, AI-powered browser looking to carve into the Google Chrome market – Atlas is designed to work like an everyday browser that’s supercharged with AI at its core.

In practice, that means the new Atlas browser –- demoed by ChatGPT maker OpenAI last week — is designed to:

–Turbo-charge many browser actions with ChatGPT
–Offer a left sidebar featuring a history of all your chats with ChatGPT
–Enable you to search your search history using ChatGPT
–Get to know you better by remembering what you’ve done with Atlas in the past
–Offer suggested links for you, based on your previous searches with Atlas
–Work as an AI agent for you and complete multi-step tasks, such as finding news for you on the Web and summarizing each news item for you that includes a hotlink to the original news source
–Engage in Deep Research
–Pivot into using a traditional search engine view while searching
–Enable you to open say 20 Web sites, then analyze and summarize those Web sites with ChatGPT
–Integrate with apps like Canva, Spotify and more
–Auto-summarize a YouTube video for you without the need to generate a transcript of that video
