   Gemini suggests follow-up tasks after a meeting, on by default

   When Take notes for me ran during a meeting, the post-meeting screen now offers next steps, such as drafting a follow-up email in Gmail or sending action items to Google Tasks. Google announced it Oct. 12; it's on by default and has rolled out gradually since Oct. 5, with visibility possibly taking longer than 15 days. Admins can turn it off for a domain, organizational unit or group in the Workspace Studio admin settings or through the Take notes for me setting.

   Check settings

   The composer now predicts your next message, on by default

   Codex suggests your next message from the current thread. Press Tab to accept it, then review or edit it before sending. Generating predictions doesn't count toward Codex usage limits during the beta, but messages you send, accepted predictions included, follow normal limits. If you'd rather write your own, turn off Show predictions in the Composer section of General settings.

   OpenAI release notes

   The prediction is a draft. Read it before you send it, or switch predictions off in General settings.

   Check settings

   A new Customize menu gathers preferences, skills and connected apps

   Open the left menu and click Customize to set how Gemini responds and which tools it connects to. Google says you can connect more than 40 apps or services. Some are available outside the U.S., in other English-speaking regions, Brazil and India. Each connection lets Gemini reach that app from a chat, so open Customize, look at what's connected and turn off anything you don't use. On a work account, connect only what your company allows.

   Wait

   Skills in Workspace are delayed; the Gemini app has them now

   Google had planned to finish the Rapid Release rollout by Oct. 12 and start Scheduled Release domains on Oct. 19. Google now says the Workspace Studio and Workspace apps launch is delayed until further notice while it makes sure skills launch safely and reliably. Skills in the Gemini app started rolling out on Oct. 13, with completion expected by mid-November, so not everyone will see them yet. Keep your Gems as they are until Google sets new dates.

Database owners can now control which properties each person or agent can view or edit. Admins can limit connections to tools verified by Notion or to specific tools they choose. Link a personal ChatGPT plan to a work workspace only if your company allows it.
