Gemini Deep Research is able to delve into your Gmail, Docs, Drive and even Chat - but will it really make you more productive? (www.techradar.com)

Google has expanded Gemini Deep Research to tap directly into Gmail, Docs/Drive and Chat (in addition to Google Search), letting the agentic feature autonomously gather internal context to produce “insightful multi‑page reports in minutes.” Previously Deep Research could only use user‑uploaded PDFs; the new integrations—rolling out on web now and to the app soon—make it far easier to analyze brainstorming docs, email threads and project plans. The capability is powered by Gemini 2.5, available to all Gemini users (not just enterprise) across 150 countries and 45+ languages, and users can opt to include or exclude each source. For AI/ML practitioners and product teams this lowers the friction for research and synthesis, effectively turning personal and team Workspace data into structured inputs for an autonomous assistant. That boosts productivity but also raises governance and privacy considerations: data access controls, auditing, and consent become critical as models ingest sensitive internal content. The update mirrors moves by competitors (OpenAI’s ChatGPT Deep Research, including a lightweight o4‑mini option) and highlights the trend toward integrated, agentic workflows—technical advances in model orchestration and data connectors that will shape how organizations balance usefulness, access, and security.
