Smart Compose is a feature that Google introduced for its Gmail service. It uses a machine learning algorithm to learn various writing styles and predict what you want to write in an email.

As you type, it will make suggestions to help you finish a thought, a sentence or even a paragraph. You can accept the suggestions by pressing the tab key, or ignore them by continuing to type.

However, like any other AI tool, Smart Compose is not always perfect. Sometimes it might make inappropriate or inaccurate suggestions, or miss the context and tone of your message. Therefore, you should always review your email before sending it and make sure it reflects your intended meaning and voice.
