It is currently in beta and is only available to enterprise customers. Duet AI has already been utilized by thousands of companies and over a million testers in Google Workspace, is set to revolutionize productivity.
The integration of Duet AI in the new Chat service will provide updates, insights, and proactive suggestions across Google Workspace apps.
