Google Docs users can now experience a smarter approach to writing, thanks to the innovative 'Help Me Write' AI assistant which is designed to help users in crafting documents with increased efficiency & creativity. Here's the complete step-by-step guide on how to use the AI feature.
Start by signing in to your Google account to access Docs. If you've already done this, proceed to open a document within Google Docs. Once the document is open, click on the desired location where you intend to begin writing.
Next, find the 'Help me write' option situated at the upper-left corner of a blank document which is accessible through a magic wand icon.
After that, a floating pop-up window appears when you click on ‘Help me write.’ Users can give prompts to direct the AI's content production for any type of material, including letters, news articles, and fictional stories.
After entering the necessary information, select ‘Create.’ Within seconds, the AI's response will be displayed within the Google Docs document. Furthermore, if the generated content looks good to you then click ‘Insert’ and adds it to the document.
Users also have the option to further adjust the AI-generated content. The drop-down menu within Docs provides choices like ‘Recreate’ for a different version or making specific modifications to a selected paragraph.
For users who wish to discontinue using the feature, it can be disabled by navigating to the ‘tools’ section and opting out of the Workspace Labs. By doing so, you'll lose permanent access to all the features within Workspace Labs.
