Google Docs has just introduced four new AI features from Gemini to enhance editing efficiency.
Google Docs now allows Gemini to summarize comments, generate replies, and propose edits, simplifying one of the most tedious aspects of collaborative editing.
Anyone who has worked on a shared document is familiar with the challenge of seeing numerous unresolved comments from multiple contributors. Google has now delegated the task of managing that confusion to Gemini.
So, what can Gemini do with your comments now?
Google Workspace is introducing four new Gemini-powered comment features in Google Docs. You can request that Gemini summarize entire comment threads or, even more efficiently, highlight unresolved issues by typing a natural language prompt such as, “What are the unresolved issues from the comments?”
Additionally, it can leave comments for you by drafting requests like asking a colleague to verify certain statistics. One of the most beneficial features is that Gemini can create context-based replies to ongoing threads, managing tasks such as confirming approvals or answering questions with information from files already stored in Drive.
Gemini can also propose document edits based on feedback from reviewers, creating changes for your review, which you can easily apply with a click. These suggestions will appear automatically in the Gemini side panel or bottom bar as you access a document or scroll through comments.
Who will have access, and are there any other features launching alongside this?
The new Google Doc features are enabled by default for admins with Gemini for Workspace active in Drive and are available for Business Standard and Plus, Enterprise, Education Plus, and Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers.
The rollout began this week and is expected to reach all eligible users within approximately 15 days. Google also discreetly released a related upgrade just a day prior, enabling Gemini to create and edit images, diagrams, and infographics directly within Docs.
It utilizes the content of your document as context and applies consistent styling across various visuals with a single natural language prompt. With advancements in comment management and visual generation, Google is clearly aiming to reduce the need for users to leave Docs to complete their tasks.
The combination of comment management and visual generation in swift rollouts suggests that Google is increasingly viewing Docs not merely as a text editor but as a comprehensive workspace hub.

OpenAI president confirms a family of ChatGPT devices is coming soon
Brockman hasn’t confirmed the smart speaker rumors, but he’s considering a more extensive lineup than a single device.
Talking to your computer instead of typing might seem like something from a sci-fi story, but OpenAI is investing heavily in this concept. In a conversation with Joanna Stern on her YouTube channel, OpenAI president Greg Brockman confirmed that the company is planning more than just one gadget. Prepare for a whole range of devices to launch.
When Stern inquired about the rumors concerning an AI smart speaker, Brockman neither confirmed nor denied them. He stated, "we're building a family of devices," emphasizing that the focus is on delivering long-term value rather than any individual product. Regarding the launch timeline, Brockman kept his comments vague, stating only, "you should expect them soon."
Microsoft is creating a Copilot super app to eliminate the need for juggling various AI applications
Chat, coding, and your autonomous work assistant are all set to come together this year.
Recently, Microsoft has been integrating Copilot into various services: chat, Cowork, coding, autonomous agents, and now it appears all of these will be consolidated into a single platform. During Wednesday's earnings call, CEO Satya Nadella confirmed that the company is developing an AI super app that will unify all these Copilot experiences.
What exactly is Microsoft planning?
I didn’t believe the budget Alienware 15 would be effective, but I was mistaken.
Dell's most affordable gaming laptop for 2026 had high expectations to meet. Fortunately, it feels like an Alienware in all the right aspects.
I've used Alienware laptops since the late 2000s, and one word has always encapsulated the brand for me: excess. The positive kind. For years, if a gamer wanted a laptop that was as visually powerful as it performed, Alienware was the brand that immediately came to mind. The bold designs, futuristic aesthetics, and unapologetically extravagant styling made every machine feel unique. While they came with hefty price tags, it somehow always felt warranted. After all, nobody expects to purchase a Porsche at a discount, right?
So when Dell introduced a budget-friendly Alienware earlier this year at CES 2026, I wasn't fully convinced. On paper, making Alienware more accessible sounds reasonable. To be fair, that's exactly what Dell will tell anyone who inquires.
