Brilliant update or privacy nightmare — you decide

, the biggest threat could come from within. This leaves 2 billion users of the world’s most popular email platform with a decision to make — and that decision is getting more critical and more difficult.

We’re talking AI, and the accelerating updates to Gmail — and other platforms — as new AI features are added into the mix. We know thatfrom scams, malware and phishing attacks.

And so you should be wary of what you send.
