Google's AI-powered Personal Intelligence feature is now available to all users in the US, enhancing the AI assistant's ability to provide personalized responses by accessing user data across Google services like Gmail and Photos.
Why it matters
This expansion signifies a significant step in the integration of AI into everyday digital experiences.
