How is it possible that even in the worst cases you spend more than 5 hours doing this? Every single day? Most emails require a quick, pre-determined response (which google actually makes easier for you now) and the ones that don't are surely not taking more than 5 minutes to type out.
- bhandziuk 8y agoWhat do you mean Google makes answering emails easier?
- WilliamEdward 8y agoIt's not really that much easier, but their new AI let's you type certain common responses like "Thank you, I'll look at this" in an instant. They made a presentation about this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogfYd705cRs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogfYd705cRs
- bhandziuk 8y agoah yes. I found those just add a lot of cognitive load to no benefit. By the time I've read "thanks!", "Yes", "How about tomorrow?" I could have just typed a response. Maybe it's just me but I basically never replay to an email with such terse responses as the options provided in Gmail.
