49. Smart Reply suggests up to three
responses based on the emails you
get. For those emails that only need a
quick response, it can take care of the
thinking and save precious time spent
typing. And for those emails that
require a bit more thought, it gives
you a jump start so you can respond
right away.
There's actually a lot going on behind

Inbox uses machine learning to
recognize emails that need responses
and to generate the natural language
responses on the fly.
