I think people are overlooking the big picture here. Inbox had a lot of machine learning features that Gmail lacked, like Smart Reply. I think this was just because they really couldn't afford to run Smart Reply on all the incoming email. Now they can, so Gmail has gained Smart Reply and they no longer need to partition that out for cost reasons. While Gmail still lacks some of the other email intelligence features that I will miss, like the Trips bundle, I have a feeling they will emerge in Gmail shortly.
