Google's Gemini AI Will Summarize PDFs For You When You Open Them

Google is rolling out new Gemini AI features for Workspace users that make it easier to find information in PDFs and form responses. From a report: The Gemini-powered file summarization capabilities in Google Drive have now expanded to PDFs and Google Forms, allowing key details and insights to be condensed into a more convenient format that saves users from manually digging through the files. Gemini will proactively create summary cards when users open a PDF in their drive and present clickable actions based on its contents, such as "draft a sample proposal" or "list interview questions based on this resume." Users can select any of these options to make Gemini perform the desired task in the Drive side panel. The feature is available in more than 20 languages and started rolling out to Google Workspace users on June 12th, though it may take a couple of weeks to appear.
