I see their point about "your" voice being sucked out of your emails if you use autocomplete for 90% of them.
I don't really care about that though. Most people I know have moved on from using email for personal communication and only use it for business. In that situation, I don't really care if my email sounds like me or not. It's just performing a function. It's not a creative expression. It's not any different than Visual Studio completing a line of overly verbose C# for me.

- gyom 8y ago> Most people I know have moved on from using email for personal communication and only use it for business. That experience completely differs from mine. Maybe I just prefer email to text or Facebook messages, but the same principle applies to wherever you are writing something to friend or family. Wouldn't you get the same problem, just elsewhere? Responding to my mother's birthday wishes does seem like it's a different kind of activity than autocompleting C# code, even though both can be executed with autocomplete to get a good valid output.
- wilsonnb 8y agoI would gladly use it for most communication. Probably not for my spouse but for everyone else. I am not a good representative for how the average person feels about using it for personal messaging, though. I can see why many people would be against it for that.
- subculture 8y agoHas Google said one way or another whether Smart Compose will take into account your personal writing style? For it to be acknowledged as a really great feature in practice I assume that it should.
- wilsonnb 8y agoThat's a good point. You would think it would since Google already analyzes the stuff in your inbox.
