Hello EU? We might need some more fines.

Thankfully I'm not on Google for anything, but I will think of this every time I send an email to someone who is.

Is this headline misleading? I've never used Messages, and I'm rapidly transitioning away from Gmail. What private messages does Google have access to?

They can have access to everything, if you use GBoard (default Android keyboard app).

Of course the headline is misleading. AI has always read your messages, if you allowed it. It depends how the AI is used and if it respects your privacy. It is possible and you can enjoy having your messages classified (or tagged) properly, so you know what are ads, which one belong banking, news or things you're interested in.

As long as it assists you to do some boring complex tasks, it can be a great help.
