Google Gemini AI can extract events from emails in Gmail and add them to your Google Calendar.
Google has announced a new AI feature that uses Gemini AI bot to add events to your Google Calendar based on emailed details in Gmail. Emails that Gemini thinks describe events will get a new “Add to Calendar button” that starts the interaction. When you click it, the Gemini prompt sidebar will open to confirm the event was added and, based on a screenshot that Google provides, give you an edit button in case you need to change anything.
The feature is similar to Google’s past non-AI features that did things like automatically add or update Google Calendar events based on certain kinds of appointment or travel emails. Google says the change is rolling out now for Workspace for business, enterprise, and education users, as well as to Google One AI Premium subscribers. The feature did a good job when I tried it, and even identified that there were two separate events in my test email.
