The 3 Interesting Benefits Of Artificial Intelligence And The Improvements Of Email Communications
Do you think Artificial Intelligence is working even to the simplest form like your emails?

The answer is an astounding yes! You might not notice that or not yet aware, but Google is using artificial intelligence to sort thing out. Including your emails.
Artificial Intelligence In Email Filtering
If you will try to halt and discern, Google categorizes your emails by "Primary" which are the emails that you read daily. These emails are also marked as important once from trusted contacts of yours.
They can be from trusted companies or subscriptions that you recently login and agreed to receive them daily email updates.

Email filtering software may reject an item at the initial SMTP connection stage[1] or pass it through unchanged for delivery to the user's mailbox - or alternatively: redirect the message for delivery elsewhere; quarantine it for further checking; edit or 'tag' it in some way.

They are also important announcements that you are waiting for. Google and Artificial Intelligence through deep learning and data collection can easily categorize these emails from the rest.
Next, are the emails considered "Social" And Promotions". You can see them on your email categories too. next to the "Primary emails". Social, from their name, are from social media accounts that you use your email to log in to.

These are either notifications you've prompted to received through email. They also contain notifications from your account security at times. Either notifications saying you've recently logged in to another device.
Common uses for mail filters include organizing incoming email and removal of spam and computer viruses. A less common use is to inspect outgoing email at some companies to ensure that employees comply with appropriate policies and laws. Users might also employ a mail filter to prioritize messages, and to sort them into folders based on subject matter or other criteria.

The social and promotional emails both allow you to review things that matter to you. Either for security updates for your social media accounts or promotional emails that you might be interested too.
Next, are the "Spam" messages that Google and AI identify that can be suspicious and might be a treat to your account security.

Have you received any promotional/subscription email saying to mark them as not spam or else they will go directly to your spam messages?
All of this filtering happens with machine learning. These are just some of the interesting benefits of artificial intelligence and the improvements in email communications.
Mail filters can operate on inbound and outbound email traffic. Inbound email filtering involves scanning messages from the Internet addressed to users protected by the filtering system or for lawful interception. Outbound email filtering involves the reverse - scanning email messages from local users before any potentially harmful messages can be delivered to others on the Internet. One method of outbound email filtering that is commonly used by Internet service providers is transparent SMTP proxying, in which email traffic is intercepted and filtered via a transparent proxy within the network. Outbound filtering can also take place in an email server. Many corporations employ data leak prevention technology in their outbound mail servers to prevent the leakage of sensitive information via email.

Imagine you getting tons of emails every single day and found out that they are only spams, promotional or even social emails. They will flood your notifications and you might miss a single 'important' email. These simple things that AI do to make our life better is already a great advantage for us, humans.
The best thing about email filtering is it detects 99% of email spams from entering your important inbox! Cool right? Amazing!
Artificial Intelligence And Predictive Smart Replies And Text
Ever got an email and you already have options on what to reply? That is a simple way of how Google uses Artificial Intelligence.

The smart reply allows the end-user and the recipient to choose fro the most accurate reply that they will send. This also saves time for both parties to think of what to acknowledge in addition to the question or survey that is sent via email.
Mail filters have varying degrees of configurability. Sometimes they make decisions based on matching a regular expression. Other times, code may match keywords in the message body, or perhaps the email address of the sender of the message. More complex control flow and logic is possible with programming languages; this is typically implemented with a data-driven programming language, such as procmail, which specifies conditions to match and actions to take on matching, which may involve further matching. Some more advanced filters, particularly anti-spam filters, use statistical document classification techniques such as the naive Bayes classifier. Image filtering can use complex image-analysis algorithms to detect skin-tones and specific body shapes normally associated with pornographic images.

With a smart reply. you can personalize the selection and make them appear as you are the one's talking over via email. Gmail offers this type of method for easy and salubrious encounter for its extensive users.

Smart predictive text, on the other hand, is like the words that are in your mind. They are readily available as soon as you start typing a few letters. Artificial Intelligence then guesses the nearest words that you might use. Cool right?
Predictive text is an input technology used where one key or button represents many letters, such as on the numeric keypads of mobile phones and in accessibility technologies. Each key press results in a prediction rather than repeatedly sequencing through the same group of "letters" it represents, in the same, invariable order. Predictive text could allow for an entire word to be input by single keypress. Predictive text makes efficient use of fewer device keys to input writing into a text message, an e-mail, an address book, a calendar, and the like.

This predictive text not just conserves your time from thinking what to write but also improves your grammar the simplest way possible. This is arranged with the perpetual advancement of Artificial Intelligence and deep machine learning through the accumulation of data from every private user.

This hand-operated response and text allow end-user to have the best, easier and most precise reply they can get from a single message. With every data, that is being collected. We are not just getting the most of what AI can offer but we are also feeding information for AI to use in the future.
The choice of which predictive text system is the best to use involves matching the user's preferred interface style, the user's level of learned ability to operate predictive text software, and the user's efficiency goal. There are various levels of risk in predictive text systems, versus multi-tap systems, because the predicted text that is automatically written that provide the speed and mechanical efficiency benefit, could, if the user is not careful to review, result in transmitting misinformation. Predictive text systems take time to learn to use well, and so generally, a device's system has user options to set up the choice of multi-tap or of any one of several schools of predictive text methods.

It can be scary at some point but, let's hope that AI, with its continuous improvement, will also one day think like a person.
Artificial Intelligence And Email Reminders
Have you noticed that 'nudging' email reminder telling you that you received that email a few days ago? That you might be interested now to reply? This is another work from Artificial Intelligence.

The nudge works to highlight the important emails that you might have missed because you were busy recently. It allows you to think about whether you need to hit that reply icon or not.

Nevertheless, these works are some of the interesting benefits of artificial intelligence and the improvements in email communications.
Email filtering is the processing of email to organize it according to specified criteria. The term can apply to the intervention of human intelligence, but most often refers to the automatic processing of incoming messages with anti-spam techniques - to outgoing emails as well as those being received.

I also prepare a few topics about email filtering on my new Querlo chat. Interact with me and learn something about simplified AI in our daily lives.
