Google said on Thursday that this AI tool can be used for a variety of tasks such as answering questions, content creation, and programming, and can operate within Google applications such as Gmail, Drive, Docs, and Calendar.

This goes beyond Google's previous agent products; in many cases, those merely responded to prompts or performed preset tasks within a single application.
